Change List Searching

Change list searching has been significantly revised in mGerrit v2.111.74 to make it easier to search for changes given a set criteria.

When searching for changes a card will appear at the top of the list with a message indicating whether to refine the search, this allows specifying a number of filters (or search keywords) to filter the changes by.

The search view in the action bar/toolbar allows searching for changes based on the change subject (the title of the commit and the first line in the commit message). Alternatively, searching by change number is supported:

#'NUMBER' Changes with commit number 'NUMBER'. This is the legacy commit number and is shown as the title of the change details screen and also uniquely identifies a change in the Gerrit web interface

Old change list searching

This section is not relevant for users of mGerrit v2.111.74 and higher. If when searching for changes you see a card "Refine this search" or similar, you can safely skip over this section including the Supported keywords section

Searching the change lists, either the 'Review', 'Merged' or 'Abandoned' tabs is designed to mimic the functionality in the Gerrit web interface. As each change contains a lot of different data, Gerrit uses what are known as operators. To avoid confusing these with what they call boolean operators we will call these "keywords".

Keywords: Act as restrictions on the search. As more keywords are added to the same query string, they further restrict the returned results.

As an example, searching for subject:warnings will return a list of changes where the commit subject contains the string "warnings" in the locally stored changes for the current tab.

Note: these search queries operate on the data stored locally in the database and do not query the Gerrit server. It is recommended to refresh the data before querying to make sure the most recent changes will be available to be searched. Currently, it is required to re-submit the search query when changing tabs as each one operates independently.

If the search does not match the format of one of the following keywords, it will be treated as a message search. So it is sufficient to enter just a portion of the title of the commit you are searching for. This is new in mGerrit v2.10.010.

Supported keywords

Currently the following keywords are supported:

change:'ID'; changeid:'ID' The change-Id that was scraped out of the commit message. Performs a partial match, so only the first few characters need to be specified.

message:'MESSAGE'; subject:'MESSAGE'; intitle:'MESSAGE' Changes that match MESSAGE arbitrary string in the first line of the commit message. The string MESSAGE can be quoted (") which will only show changes that contain exactly the string MESSAGE. If the string is unquoted and contains spaces, only the first word will be used.

owner:'USER' Changes originally submitted by USER. Identifier that uniquely identifies one account. The user can be:

• a string of the format "Full Name email@example.com"
• just the email address ("email@example")
• a full name if it is unique ("Full Name")
• an account ID ("18419")

project:'PROJECT' Changes occurring in PROJECT. Exact match only.

topic:'TOPIC' Changes whose designated topic at upload was TOPIC. This is often combined with branch: and project: keywords to select all related changes in a series.

branch:'BRANCH' Changes for BRANCH. This is the short name shown in the web interface without the 'refs/heads/' prefix.

#'NUMBER'; no:'NUMBER' Changes with commit number 'NUMBER'. This is the legacy commit number and is shown as the title of the change details screen and also uniquely identifies a change in the Gerrit web interface

is:starred Changes you have starred. You do not need to be signed in to view starred changes. This is new in mGerrit v2.111.066.

age:'OP''AGE' Amount of time that has expired since the change was last updated with a review comment or new patch set. Unlike the Gerrit web interface, this supports both specifying absolute and relative times.

Absolute: 'AGE' must be of a form specified by the ISO standard, where the date is mandatory and the time is optional. YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss fits this format. Should be in server time as no datetime conversion is performed.

Relative: 'AGE' can be provided as a period of time since the current time, for example to view changes 2 days ago use: age:"2 days" The age must be specified to include a unit suffix, for example age:2d

The supported unit suffices are:

• s, sec, secs, second, seconds
• m, min, mins, minute, minutes
• h, hr, hrs, hour, hours
• d, day, days
• w, week, weeks
• mon, mons, mth, mths, month, months
• y, yr, yrs, year, years Multiple units can be specified in a single query, but they must be separated with a space. The order of the units is not important. A space between the unit and its suffix is optional. The following query is valid: age:">2 years 4 days 3w 1d 2m"

The supported operators are:

• <: Search for changes earlier than (before) the given time
• >: Search for changes later than (after) the given time
• <=: Search for changes earlier than or equal to the given time
• >=: Search for changes later than or equal to the given time
• =: Default. Search for changes equal to the given time give or take one unit from the shortest time interval. For example the search: age:"=5 weeks 2 days" is equivalent to age:">5 weeks 1 days" age:"<5 weeks 3 days" Note: Specifying the same unit multiple times in a single keyword stacks, with the value accumulating. For example: age:"5 weeks 2w" is equivalent to age:"7 weeks"

Building

mGerrit building instructions (from base of repository):

• ANT: ant clean debug
• gradle: gradlew clean build

gradle requires Build Tools revision 23.0.2

AOKP

mGerrit's AOKP Embedded version: This software comes included in the AOKP firmware stack. The apk is included as a signed prebuilt apk. This allows updating from the PlayStore, avoids provider authority collisions and removes mGerrit from AOKP version dependency.

To find the prebuilt apk please see $TOP/vendor/aokp/prebuilt/common/mGerrit.apk
