[libreoffice-projects] [ANN] Please use Gerrit from now on for Patch Review

[Tor Lillqvist]

I find it peculiar that in the discussion here people keep talking
about patches, as if gerrit was only a "patch" review tool. At least I
understand "patch" to mean a relatively local change to the code in
order to fix some specific bug. But if the intent is that *all*
changes are to go through gerrit, surely the majority of changes
(number-of-lines-wise, not number-wise) going through it will be
feature work and cleanups, not patches?

Will this mean people will start doing less refactoring cleanups, for
instance, in order to make their change sets smaller, to increase the
possibility of somebody reviewing the, eh, "patch"?
