Yes it _is_ difficult for volunteer developers. I still find it very difficult and did not commit any new line of code to gerrit except a "coached fix" during Berlin Hackathon 2012. And use github for my daily work now.
Can you please detail what you found difficult in the process, so that we can try to make things easier?
The previous committers to this thread already said it all.
Basically, I miss exspecially these functions which I often used in the CodeReview
- list a code-(module) related contributions of committers - immediate and direct view of accumulated differences (this was so nice) - show differences in a module between this day and that day (for bisection of a certain bug) I mean this: just as an example https://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/OpenID/OpenID.ph...
Revision 115069 - (view) (download) (annotate) - [select for diffs] Modified Thu Apr 26 23:50:06 2012 UTC (3 months ago) by wikinaut File length: 10965 byte(s) Diff to previous 113562 , to selected 111329 - clean interface not to bother with links (in gerrit) I do not understand and I do not have to use.
Summary: I as a now-and-then contributor need a
"gerrit-light"
with a interface very much the same as "CodeReview". This is why I proposed already in another mail to write a wrapper, a gateway or however you want to call it which wraps gerrit, and let me use gerrit as I was used to do with CodeReview.
Expert will switch away fro "gerrit-light" to "gerrit-expertview" of course. Tom now also on #mediawiki
