The point is revision numbers are slightly more useful than hashes. The reason is you can compare them on < (less than) and > (bigger than) whereas hashes you can just compare for = (equality). So with hashes you can just say "same" revision or not, but with revisions you can also say "newer", "older" may be even "very very old"... ;)) By the way the changes [1] and [2] [1] https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/77554 [2] https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/77555 are "opt-in" in a double manner. First you have to use $pwbId$ and second you have to enable 2 git filters in order to work.
