Hi, i have created this task [1] with i have uploaded this patch [2] to make polygerrit
the default ui.
The reason why is upstream are preparing to remove the gwtui very soon. In matter of fact
upstream have disabled the gwtui on *.googlesource.com. Upstream already have this change
[3] to remove the ui. Making PolyGerrit the default ui will get new users use to the new
ui.
GWTUI will still be available with ui switcher in the footer or you can append the url
like
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/?polygerrit=0
PolyGerrit is stable, secure and also fast. It also has features that you cannot see in
gwtui like user status, naming your patchiest (description), cc feature and also being
able to tell who added you as a reviewer.
This email is advanced notice before we change the default ui.
any bugs todo with polygerrit / gerrit can be filled
at
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/330/ and we can forward it upstream.
