To add another possibility to the mix, I'd suggest using something like Apache 
Yetus to manage commit process.

IMO reviewboard with git is strictly better than reviewboard with svn; getting 
reviewboard from svn to accept my patches was always a chore -- I've never had 
that problem with git.

I have mixed feelings about gerrit.  The main advantages are:
1) automatic pre commit checks (i.e. I can have it run the unit tests / 
precommit when I put a patch up for review), no extra effort on my part or 
taxing of my dev machine.
2) better source repository integration.  I can see which patches have been 
committed and which haven't and it's easier to submit and track multiple 
changes that depend on each other).  I can also set it up to commit to the 
repository the way I want (i.e. always cherry pick).

The downside is the UI is just awful, at least for the version I'm used to.  As 
an example, I haven't even figured out a good way of replying to a review 
comment without copying the comment (from a different page!), pasting it and 
adding my own quotes so it's clear which comment I'm referring to.

So, if you are looking for a tool to assist in reviews, I would recommend 
Review Board.  If you are looking for a tool to help you manage the commit 
process, gerrit does that pretty well.

+1; I can't see how anyone would object to adding/retaining support for the 
tool.  Nobody is forced to use it.

I'm curious of the move to Git allows for possibly better options.  I've heard 
good things about Gerrit but I've never tried it.  I have mixed feelings of my 
experience with Reviewboard, but *anything* beats reviewing big patch files!

Mark, Greg what do you guys think?  I recall you two used it too.

Looks like https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-7630 set up the 
original/existing review board. If there are no objections or existing ticket 
then I will raise a similar ticket towards the end of this week.

Hello.

Having not used it before, I'd like to try out reviews.apache.org (even though 
it's only been used a few times for the project in the past based on the 
https://reviews.apache.org/groups/lucene/ listing).

The review board seems so far unware of the svn-to-git migration. Other 
projects have dual listings e.g. hive and hive-git or zookeeper and 
zookeeper-git.

If no one else is looking yet then I'd be happy to look into setting up a 
lucene-solr-git reviews.apache.org entry?

Christine
