Foundation interested in getting community feedback on code review tools.
Goal: evaluate the opportunities/next steps
Drafted document to be shared with the community.
Please contact Tom in case you want to review the email.
Round table at dev meeting 2 years ago identified 2 blockers for a migration:
Not having a replacement for "Herald rules" from Phabricator (tailored
email notifications). This would need to be implemented by us.
Stacked pull requests are not supported (PR depending on another PR).
There is a workaround via creating multiple branches and then PRs between
these branches would. This would require contributors to be able to
create branches in the repo and leads to lots of open branches.
Not an ideal solution but it could work.
The proposal should probably address these points.
We probably not only want Pull Requests but more of the features around that.
Maybe wait until we have a contractor on board to help with investigations
and implementation.
