Gerrit is a web based code review system, facilitating online code reviews for projects using the Git version control system. Gerrit makes reviews easier by showing changes in a side-by-side display, and allowing inline comments to be added by any reviewer. Gerrit simplifies Git based project maintainership by permitting any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, rather than requiring all approved changes to be merged in by hand by the project maintainer. This functionality enables a more centralized usage of Git. Gerrit 2.x and later run in any standard Java servlet container, and includes an embedded SSH daemon, providing gitosis like group security and data access. If desired, the review process can be skipped by directly pushing branches/tags, if the necessary access has been granted to the user. The last time I announced Gerrit on this list, it only ran on Google App Engine. Gerrit 2.x and later is designed to run in any environment, without requiring the use of a Google product, or network connectivity to the Internet. This makes it much more suited for corporate deployments, or open source projects which already have their own servers. Currently, Gerrit is under very active development, with stable releases being made about once per week. As such, I won't be announcing future releases here very often.
