Using CodeMirror's lint addon on the UI to display the blame annotations. It works on both sides of the side-by-side diff and also supports the auto-merge commit. It requires manual step to enable the annotations to avoid any unnecessary git processing and network traffic between the server and client. Introduces a new dependency on blame-cache in gerrit-server to reuse BlameCache. In a following change, the gutter showing the blame info will be made clickable. Clicking on the gutter will open a new tab that takes the user to the corresponding change in Gerrit. The commit SHA-1 hashes are currently not selectable. Making it so might require an upstream change in CodeMirror's lint addon. Bug: Issue 1642 Change-Id: I6267d30cbee448f8137e11c7120959dc424eaeeb
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.
