Hi Guys, thank you for the feedback and linking previous discussion. I should have search mailing list history prior sending my question.
All the projects that I participate in and that moved to git still uses the same patch-file-based contribution process as it was in place when there were on SVN. We had short discussion [1] about using Gerrit [2] for code reviews rather than Review board which would make contribution process little bit more straightforward but the discussion has died without real outcome.
