Respect a new optional file $site/etc/All-Projects/project.config which serves as the base config file for project.config in All-Projects. It may seem odd to introduce a level of inheritance above All-Projects: if you want to change a default value and have it inherited across all projects on your site, it should just go in All-Projects, right? Indeed, that remains the recommended approach for a single server. However, in the case where an administrator manages multiple Gerrit servers, updating the defaults across all servers would require scripting git commits and/or pushes to multiple All-Projects repos. Such an administrator is likely already using Puppet or similar to manage gerrit.config, so a simpler approach for them would be to edit a single file and then push it out to all servers. This change gives them that option. Use a separate file from gerrit.config to maintain a clear distinction between server-type options and project-type options. There is already some ad-hoc "inheritance" between gerrit.config and project.config, for example of receive.maxObjectSizeLimit. We would like to avoid the need for such ad-hoc code, providing instead a more general mechanism. The location under etc/All-Projects could eventually contain more files that could provide defaults for other files in All-Projects. However, defining inheritance semantics for file types other than git config files is nontrivial, so punt for now, documenting the limitations. Change-Id: I572dbfb6b57c6bb45adc96dc5b10071299deeb0d |

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.
Documentation
For information about how to install and use Gerrit, refer to the documentation.
Source
Our canonical Git repository is located on googlesource.com. There is a mirror of the repository on Github.
Reporting bugs
Please report bugs on the issue tracker.
Contribute
Gerrit is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!
Please read the contribution guidelines.
Note that we do not accept Pull Requests via the Github mirror.
Getting in contact
The IRC channel on freenode is #gerrit. An archive is available at: echelog.com.
The Developer Mailing list is repo-discuss on Google Groups.
License
Gerrit is provided under the Apache License 2.0.
Build
Install Bazel and run the following:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit
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.
