Will the pre-commit review work for non-Wikimedia
extension commits, or
that would be impossible due to shortage of reviewers? How will the
commit queue work for non-Wikimedia extensions?
AIUI:
Extensions will default to having no gating/reviews. (if you have
access to push to extensions at all then you have push access to all
extensions that don't ask for a different setup) They can use gerritt
if they like and if using gerritt they can specify their own
list/criteria for the gatekeeper users.
There will be 2 (at least) meta modules which in turn just have git submodules.
One will have all extensions and will be updated with new commit IDs
by commit/push hooks on the individual extension modules.
One will have just the extensions used by WMF. I'm not sure how it
will be updated but I imagine one possibility is to do updates to WMF
extensions or others sufficiently gated automatically and do manual
updates (and simultaneously reviews) on updates to extensions with
more open push control.
