* setup.py: This works around bug 1073766, what appears to be an upstream installer issue exposed by e7b8dc61. When attempting to idempotently create the full destination path, it will fail cryptically on any existing symlink it finds (expecting only real directories).

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. Assuming that file is present, git-review should be able to automatically configure your repository the first time it is run.
Usage
Hack on some code, then:
git review
If you want to submit that code to a branch other than "master", 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 a branch for review and then remove the local branch:
git review -f
If you want to skip the automatic "git rebase -i" step:
git review -R
If you want to download change 781 from gerrit to review it:
git review -d 781
If you just want to do the commit message and remote setup steps:
git review -s
.gitreview file format
Example .gitreview file (used to upload for git-review itself)
[gerrit]
host=review.openstack.org
port=29418
project=openstack-ci/git-review.git
defaultbranch=master
Required values: host, project
Optional values: port (default: 29418), defaultbranch (default: master)
Notes
- Username not required because it is requested on first run
- Unlike git config files there cannot be any whitespace before the name of the variable.
- git-review will create a gerrit remote upon first run
Installation
Install with pip install git-review
For installation from source simply add git-review to your $PATH
