Hello,

git-review is a python utility that acts as a thin wrapper around Gerrit
workflow.  It has been written by the OpenStack community which is a
python shop.

It comes with few issues:

* the versions that comes with Linux distributions are fairly outdated
and comes with known issues.
* installing using the python package managers is not straightforward
and has several permissions issues depending on your operating system
(some install system wide which require root, others to a user writable
dir etc)
* old versions were pushing to the HEAD of the repo iirc which is
troublesome when you are working on another branch
* some global configuration is needed
* you need a remote named gerrit

On that last point, git-review 1.26 comes with a new option 'usepushurl'
which makes git-review reuse the origin repo and just set the push url
to the ssh:// url.  The 'gerrit' remote will no more be needed.

Ie in your ~/.gitconfig :

   [gitreview]
        usepushurl = 1


What I did until that new version is that all my clones were done with a
remote named 'gerrit' (git clone -o gerrit <url>).

Since folks are tired of debugging python stacktraces and incorrect
git-review configuration, some are recommending to use the underlying
Gerrit workflow command:

 git push origin HEAD:refs/publish/<BRANCH>[/<TOPIC>]
