I pushed it after Tom de Vries reviewed it on Gerrit:

https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/24

Does this mean that now we need to look for patches in two places?
Can Gerrit be set up to forward the review comments to the list?

Also, if some of us decides to do the review on Gerrit, does it mean
all the others need to do that as well?


The transition to some better (restrictions may apply) patch reviewing system is a good thing, but i agree we should think further about it. Personally i think we should discuss and then decide on a date by which we will fully transition to it.

Otherwise there is the potential for confusion since people will have to look into two different places for patches. People may review stuff on gerrit and the mailing list at the same time. This split isn't great and is prone to cause collision of suggestions due to reviewers not being aware of each other. etc.

Ideally we'd put gerrit up when it is fully configured and functional, being able to merge patches automatically. Then only maintainers will be able to +2 (approve) patches and verify contributors meet the legal requisites as is already the case with mailing lists?
