 Hi Joel,

 The command line isn't the only way, but we recommend it over the web
 interface. The reason is that not all diff generators provide enough
 information to be able to look up files remotely. RBTools/post-review will
 ensure the diffs contain the necessary information, and may also provide
 additional useful metadata or work around quirks. It's also just faster to
 type 'post-review' than to generate a diff and upload it through a website.


Ok but it is not clear to me if you mean command line on the same computer
where Review Board server is installed, or if there is some kind of
associated command line client, DSVC tools?

 This is on the end users' machines.

 We have a set of command line tools (well, one right now, but soon a set)
 under the name RBTools, which is installed on the develoeprs' machines.
 These interact with the Review Board server, and they also call out to git,
 svn, or whatever command line tools are appropriate to interact with your
 local checkout.

 The main tool we have right now is called post-review. There are docs on
 it at http://www.reviewboard.org/docs/manual/dev/users/tools/post-review/

 A new release will be out in a couple weeks that provides some new command
 line tools for working with a Review Board server, and a Python API that
 can be used to write custom clients to talk to Review Board.


Thanks for the  info.
I think I'll wait for the next release before installing all this, it's not
urgent.
