Release notes for Gerrit 2.8
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gerrit 2.8 is now available:
|
|
|
|
link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/downloads/detail?name=gerrit-2.8.war[
|
|
http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/downloads/detail?name=gerrit-2.8.war]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Schema Change
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
*WARNING:* This release contains schema changes. To upgrade:
|
|
----
|
|
java -jar gerrit.war init -d site_path
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
*WARNING:* Upgrading to 2.8.x requires the server be first upgraded to 2.1.7 (or
|
|
a later 2.1.x version), and then to 2.8.x. If you are upgrading from 2.2.x.x or
|
|
later, you may ignore this warning and upgrade directly to 2.8.x.
|
|
|
|
*WARNING:* The replication plugin now automatically creates missing repositories
|
|
on the destination if during the replication of a ref the target repository is
|
|
found to be missing. This is a change in behavior of the replication plugin. To go
|
|
back to the old behavior, set the parameter `remote.NAME.createMissingRepositories`
|
|
in the `replication.config` file to `false`.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/config-gerrit.html#receive.maxObjectSizeLimit[
|
|
project configuration] to further reduce the global setting.

* Site administrators can define a
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/config-mail.html#_footer_vm[

|
edited from the Web UI or via a REST API.
|
|
|
|
* New options `--list-plugins` and `--install-plugins` on the

|
|
authentication configuration].
|
|
+
|
|
When using HTTP-based authentication, the SSO can be delegated to check not only
|
|
the user credentials but also to fetch the full user-profile.
|
|
+
|
|
With the config properties `auth.httpDisplaynameHeader` and `auth.httpEmailHeader`
|
|
it is possible to configure the name of the headers used for propagating this extra
|
|
information and enforce them on the user profile during login and beyond.

|
|
|
|
Web UI
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
Global
|
|
^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
* The change status is shown in a separate column on dashboards and search results.
|
|
|
|
Change Screens
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
|
|
* New change screen with completely redesigned UI and using the REST API.
|
|
+
|
|
Site administrators can
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/config-gerrit.html#gerrit.changeScreen[
|
|
configure which change screen is shown by default].
|
|
+
|
|
Users can choose which one to use in their personal preferences, either using
|
|
the site default or explicitly choosing the old one or new one.
|
|
|
|
* New button to cherry-pick the change to another branch.
|
|
|
|
* When issuing a rebase via the Web UI, the committer is now the logged in
|
|
user, rather than "Gerrit Code Review".
|
|
+
|
|
If the user has more than one email address, the preferred email address will
|
|
be used.
|
|
|
|
* Default user's full name to git committer name if user has not configured a
|
|
full name in their profile.
|
|
|
|
* Include comment author attributes in comment panels.
|
|
+
|
|
Comment author's email address and name are included as attributes in comment
|
|
panels. This makes it easier to filter out CI-based comments using user
|
|
scripts.
|
|
|
|
* Copy reviewed flag to new patch sets for identical files.
|
|
+
|
|
If a user has already seen and reviewed a file, the 'reviewed' flag is forwarded
|
|
on to the next patch set when the content of the file in the next patch set is
|
|
identical to the reviewed file.
|
|
|
|
* "Uploaded Patch Set 1" change message is added on changes when they
|
|
are uploaded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
REST API
|
|
~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
* Several new link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/rest-api.html[
|
|
REST API endpoints] are added.
|
|
|
|
* REST views can determine how long their response should be cached.
|
|
|
|
* REST views can handle 'HTTP 422 Unprocessable Entity' responses.

Capabilities
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
New global capabilities are added.
|
|
|
|
* link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/access_control.html#capability_generateHttpPassword[
|
|
Generate Http Password] allows non-administrator users to generate HTTP
|
|
passwords for users other than themselves.
|
|
+
|
|
This capability would typically be assigned to a non-interactive group
|
|
to be able to generate HTTP passwords for users from a tool or web service
|
|
that uses the Gerrit REST API.
|
|
|
|
* link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/access_control.html#capability_runAs[
|
|
Run As] allows users to impersonate other users by setting the `X-Gerrit-RunAs`
|
|
HTTP header on REST API calls.
|
|
+
|
|
Site administrators do not inherit this capability; it must be granted
|
|
explicitly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Emails
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
* The `RebasedPatchSet` template is removed. Email notifications for rebased
|
|
changes are now sent with the `ReplacePatchSet` template.
|
|
|
|
* Comment notification emails now include context of comments that are replied
|
|
to, and links to the file(s) in which comments are made.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Plugins
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
Global
|
|
^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Plugins may now contribute buttons to various parts of the UI using the
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/dev-plugins.html#ui_extension[
|
|
UI extension] and
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/js-api.html[
|
|
JavaScript API].
|
|
|
|
* Plugins may now provide an 'About' section on their documentation index page.
|
|
|
|
* Plugins may now provide separate sections for REST API and servlet
|
|
documentation on their index page.
|
|
|
|
* Plugins may now provide
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/config-validation.html#pre-merge-validation[
|
|
pre-merge validation steps].
|
|
|
|
* Plugins may now provide
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/dev-plugins.html#capabilities[
|
|
Global capabilities].
|
|
|
|
* Plugins may now
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/dev-plugins.html#plugin_name[
|
|
define their own name].
|
|
|
|
* The "hello world" plugin is replaced with the "cookbook plugin" which has more
|
|
examples of the plugin API's usage.
|
|
|
|
* Plugins may now trigger and listen to a "project deleted"
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/dev-plugins.html#events[
|
|
event].
|
|
|
|
* link:https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=2101[Issue 2101]:
|
|
Plugins implementing LifecycleListener can use auto registration.
|
|
|
|
* Plugins may bind REST endpoints with empty view names.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Commit Message Length Checker
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Commits whose subject or body length exceeds the limit can be rejected.
|
|
|
|
Replication
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
* Automatically create missing repositories on the destination.
|
|
+
|
|
If during the replication of a ref the target repository is found to be missing,
|
|
the repository is automatically created.
|
|
+
|
|
This is a change in behavior of the replication plugin. To go back to the old
|
|
behavior, set the parameter `remote.NAME.createMissingRepositories` in the
|
|
`replication.config` file to `false`.
|
|
|
|
* Support for replication of project deletions.
|
|
+
|
|
The replication plugin can now be configured to listen to project deletion events
|
|
and to replicate the project deletions. By default project deletions are *not*
|
|
replicated.
|
|
|
|
* The `{$name}` placeholder is optional when replicating a single project,
|
|
allowing a single project to be replicated under a different name.
|
|
|
|
* Project names can be matched with wildcard or regex patterns in `replication.config`.
|
|
|
|
* The `replication start` command does not exit until replication is finished
|
|
when the `--wait` option is used.
|
|
|
|
* The `replication start` command displays a summary of the replication status.
|
|
|
|
* Retry counts are added to replication task names, so they can be seen in the
|
|
output of the `show-queue` command.
|
|
|
|
* The `remoteNameStyle` option can be set to `basenameOnly` to replicate projects
|
|
using only the basename on the target server.
|
|
|
|
* The `startReplication` global capability is now provided by the plugin.
|
|
|
|
* Pushes to each destination URI are serialized.
|
|
+
|
|
Scheduling a retry to avoid collision with an in-flight push is differentiated
|
|
from a retry due to a transport error. In the case of collision avoidance, the
|
|
job is rescheduled according to the replication delay, rather than the retry
|
|
delay.
|
|
|
|
Review Notes
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
* Do not try to create review notes for ref deletion events.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ssh
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The `commit-msg` hook installation command is now
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/config_gerrit.html#gerrit.installCommitMsgHookCommand[
|
|
configurable].
|
|
|
|
* link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/cmd-ls-members.html[
|
|
New `ls-members` command].
|
|
|
|
* link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/cmd-set-members.html[
|
|
New `set-members` command].
|
|
+
|
|
New command to manipulate group membership. Members can be added or removed
|
|
and groups can be included or excluded in one specific group or number of groups.
|
|
|
|
* The full commit message is now included in the data sent by the
|
|
link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/cmd-stream-events.html[
|
|
`stream-events` command].
|
|
|
|
* The link:http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.8/cmd-show-queue.html[
|
|
`show-queue` command] now shows the time that a task was added to the queue.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Daemon
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Add `--init` option to Daemon to initialize site on daemon start.
|
|
+
|
|
The `--init` option will also upgrade an already existing site and is processed in
|
|
non-interactive (batch) mode.
|
|

Bug Fixes

---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
General
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Use the parent change on the same branch for rebases.
|
|
+
|
|
Since there can be multiple changes with the same commit on different branches,
|
|
use the parent change on the same branch during rebase.
|
|
|
|
* link:https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=600[Issue 600]:
