Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.

Gerrit makes reviews easier by showing changes in a side-by-side display, and allowing inline comments to be added by any reviewer.

Gerrit simplifies Git based project maintainership by permitting any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, rather than requiring all approved changes to be merged in by hand by the project maintainer.

For information about how to install and use Gerrit, refer to the documentation.

Our canonical Git repository is located on googlesource.com. There is a mirror of the repository on Github.

Please report bugs on the issue tracker.

Gerrit is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

Please read the contribution guidelines.

Note that we do not accept Pull Requests via the Github mirror.

The Developer Mailing list is repo-discuss on Google Groups.
