# git-review
A git command for submitting branches to Gerrit
git-review is a tool that helps submitting git branches to gerrit for review
## Setup
git-review, by default, looks for a git remote called gerrit, and submits the current branch to HEAD:refs/for/master at that remote.
If the "gerrit" remote does not exist, git-review looks for a file called .gitreview at the root of the repository with information about the gerrit remote.
If you want to manually create a gerrit remote, for example, to set it to the OpenStack Compute (nova) project (assuming you have previously signed in to the [OpenStack Gerrit server](https://review.openstack.org) with your Launchpad account), you would do:
USERNAME=jsmith # Launchpad username here
PROJECT=openstack/nova
git remote add gerrit ssh://$USERNAME@review.openstack.org:29418/$PROJECT.git
## Usage
Hack on some code, then:
git review
If you want to submit that code to a different target branch, then:
git review branchname
If you want to submit to a different remote:
git review -r my-remote
If you want to supply a review topic:
git review -t topic/awesome-feature
If you want to submit your change to a branch other than master:
git review milestone-proposed
If you want to skip the automatic rebase -i step:
git review -R
If you want to download change 781 from gerrit to review it:
git review -d 781
