Use [commentlink] from Gerrit provider #1904

Open adambadura opened 2 years ago

adambadura commented 2 years ago

Gerrit uses refs/meta/config special branch to configure various aspects of Gerrit itself. Amongst others are [commentlink] sections in the project.config file. It would be nice if the provider here could take this into account as a kind of auto-generated auto-links.

The complexity I see here is that it would require to contact Gerrit API.

Because, when you clone a project in your local machine, the refs/meta/config does not get cloned.

Another thing is that depending on how the project was configured, it's not even allowed for users to fetch this special ref.

It could be done as on-demand action that would import existing settings and convert them to auto-link settings? However, for that see #1903.
