 Hi Robert,

 Sorry, I was a little unclear with my first question; I meant that we need
 to do separate reviews for each project. Is there some way to submit a
 single review that covers multiple projects?

Not at the moment, there isn't.


 With regard to the workflow, there are a few options, but all of them have
 significant problems, mostly stemming from the fact that until after the
 review, the current workspace is on hold, and we can't make changes to that
 file. Some options are:

 We could do a post review, in which case we would need to keep track
 mentally of which files to commit, which depends on the accuracy of human
 memory.
 Make a new workspace and run post review there. In this case, we don't get
 the Eclipse graphical diff unless we boot another copy of Eclipse. We would
 like to be able to get Eclipse to show the diff without doing this process,
 since there aren't other diff utilities that allow you to edit on the fly.
 Make a new workspace every time a review is submitted. This results in the
 problem with costly multiple workspaces.
 Make a new workspace and trick Eclipse with symlinks. This results in
 problems with adding and removing projects.
 Revert the change in the current workspace and then re-apply it after the
 review. The major problem is that you have to be at a point when you can
 re-apply (ie. just committed something or finished another feature)

 What are some ways that we can deal with having multiple workspaces (as most
 of these options entail)? How can we get around this?

I typically generate patches and them leave on RB for reviews and
revert changes to my local workspace. If it makes you feel safer, you
can also save the diff locally for each review.

 Thank you very much,
 Jenny

 How would you propose streamlining the process of posting reviews?



 changing workspaces to do pre-commit code reviews, which are expensive.


 Why do you need to change workspaces to do pre-commit code reviews?

 Thanks!

Migrate review board data from two instances to another instance

2012-06-23 Thread shravanthi s
Hi,

In our company, we have different product teams using their own
instance of reviewboard( currently there are 3 or 4 instances of
review board). However we have a new instance of reviewboard set up
(1.6.5). and we are planning to use only this instance across all
teams. So we need to migrate data from all other instances to this
instance. Is there a way to achieve this? If so could you please
explain the procedure? (some of the existing instance versions are 0.9
and 1.6.9) .
