Yeah, this was more of an ad-hoc thing so that we could cherry-pick things to go in our next release. I wouldn't recommend trying this to model pull requests, since, like you said, it would require submitting another patch to merge your "PR" branch.

Yo can you expand on how to use this to do branch-driven development? Seems like you could get something similar to PRs by doing this.
I guess you have to do a merge patch later to master?

For anyone iOS or gerrit inclined I just created a "4.1.5" release branch and submitted a patch https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/216861/ using "git review 4.1.5".
This was done by:
- Pushing a new branch to gerrit
- git push -u origin HEAD:4.1.5
- Submitting the patch to the newly created branch
- commit some changes...
- git review 4.1.5
Step #1 requires push permissions for your target repo.
If there is future work to be done on the branch (backports etc.) it's a good idea to change defaultbranch in .gitreview to avoid accidents (that branch will be used if you run git review without a branch name).
