Re: Coming Soon: A New URL for Gerrit
DW Talton
Hi Everyone,
The Gerrit migration is complete! The existing Gerrit at review.opencontrail.org is set to read-only, so you can no longer commit to it. The new Gerrit resides at https://gerrit.tungsten.io, and is identical to the old Gerrit as of the time of the migration. Everything should work the same as before, with the only change being the upstream origin URL.
Thanks for you patience. I know this was a long time coming and that there may be a little more pain as we clean up from the migration, but we're very happy to have this onboarded on the LF! -DW

Coming Soon: A New URL for Gerrit
DW Talton
Hi Everyone,
With a new year we are getting a new Gerrit, and soon you must switch to using the official Tungsten URL to access it: https://gerrit.tungsten.io The date for the final cutover is still TBD as it's dependent upon the final TF release of this year. Once the release is complete, the current Gerrit system at https://review.opencontrail.org/ will be set to read-only mode. Note that during the move there will be a window of time that both Gerrit systems will be read-only. Everything else will remain the same. However, if you are already working locally on a patch when the cutover happens, then you must modify the git remote origin before sending it up for review. Don't fret if you've never had to do this before, it's an easy change with a nice walk-through on how to do it here: https://devconnected.com/how-to-change-git-remote-origin/ More information to come as we get closer to release. Cheers, DW

TUTORIAL: Using Gerrit for Code Review
DW Talton
Hello everyone,
As we move closer to utilizing Gerrit more over the next few months, I thought it made sense to share the Linux Foundation's guide to using Gerrit. It's a simple, yet comprehensive, guide on all the important functions that a developer needs to do when interacting with Gerrit on a regular basis. I hope you find it as informative as I do (I still regularly reference it!) https://docs.releng.linuxfoundation.org/en/latest/gerrit.html Also, you can find information on all the other technology that the foundation uses here https://docs.releng.linuxfoundation.org/en/latest/ Thanks for reading, DW The Linux Foundation
