This is the second attempt to build JGit from the source using git submodule approach. The first attempt that was abandoned is here: [1]. Using a submodule to bring in the source files vastly simplifies updating JGit. Gerrit developers can bump the SHA-1 of the submodule and not deal with the Maven rebuild process for JGit. This change updates JGit dependency from 5.4.3.201909031940-r to commit 009e07882fee2b0ad2ebe7ba44e2ff52c101f858, and Javadoc version from: 5.4.3.201909031940-r to 5.5.0.201909110433-r. To bump to new Javadoc API _DOC_VERS should be updated in java/com/google/gerrit/extensions/BUILD to point to the desired JGit Javadoc release. JGit sources are imported in Eclipse as source folders. One side effect of this change is that the source code warnings for JGit project are now shown.

Gerrit Code Review
Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.
Objective
Gerrit makes reviews easier by showing changes in a side-by-side display, and allowing inline comments to be added by any reviewer.
Gerrit simplifies Git based project maintainership by permitting any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, rather than requiring all approved changes to be merged in by hand by the project maintainer.

cd gerrit && bazel build release
Install binary packages (Deb/Rpm)
The instruction how to configure GerritForge/BinTray repositories is here
On Debian/Ubuntu run:
apt-get update & apt-get install gerrit=<version>-<release>
NOTE: release is a counter that starts with 1 and indicates the number of packages that have been released with the same version of the software.
On CentOS/RedHat run:
yum clean all && yum install gerrit-<version>[-<release>]
On Fedora run:
dnf clean all && dnf install gerrit-<version>[-<release>]
Use pre-built Gerrit images on Docker
Docker images of Gerrit are available on DockerHub
To run a CentOS 7 based Gerrit image:
docker run -p 8080:8080 gerritforge/gerrit-centos7[:version]
To run a Ubuntu 15.04 based Gerrit image:
docker run -p 8080:8080 gerritforge/gerrit-ubuntu15.04[:version]
NOTE: release is optional. Last released package of the version is installed if the release number is omitted.
