(The bot is temporarily being called lolrrit-wm instead of gerrit-wm until we get some issues fixed. lolrrit-wm is not a permanent nick for the bot!)
Hello! The old gerrit-wm was a bunch of python scripts running as hooks in the production cluster, which were hacky and not too well maintained. Chad asked me if I could write a replacement, and since I already had some infrastructure for similar tools running on toollabs, I wrote one.
The source is at https://github.com/yuvipanda/lolrrit-wm, and will be moved to Gerrit soon. It's currently running on toollabs, with me and ^demon as co-maintainers.
The new one is now active wherever the old one is supposed to be. If it is not reporting changes somewhere it should be, please ping me so I can fix that. It has a cleaner message format that also packs more info into it, and hopefully can be more useful and less spammy.
Feature requests and pitchforks welcome! And requests/ideas for other similar tools are also welcome :)
