| Release notes for Gerrit 2.0.2 |
| ============================== |
| |
| Gerrit 2.0.2 is now available for download: |
| |
| link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/[http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/] |
| |
| Important Notes |
| --------------- |
| |
| Starting with this version, Gerrit is now packaged as a single WAR file. |
| Just download and drop into your webapps directory for easier deployment. |
| The WAR file itself is also executable via "java -jar gerrit.war", so tools |
| like CreateSchema are easier to invoke ("java -jar gerrit.war |
| CreateSchema"). |
| |
| The following optional 3rd party JARs are not included in the WAR: |
| |
| * Bouncy Castle Crypto API |
| * H2 JDBC Driver |
| * c3p0 pooled DataSource |
| + |
| Existing Gerrit administrators either need to change the SSH host key used |
| by their servers, or download the Bouncy Castle Crypto API. The OpenSSH key |
| file format can only be read if Bouncy Castle is available, so you need to |
| install that library to continue using an existing host key. If you are |
| using Jetty, you can download the library ( |
| http://www.bouncycastle.org/java.html) to $JETTY_HOME/lib/plus, then restart |
| Jetty. |
| If you use H2 as your database, you will need to download the JDBC driver |
| and insert it into your container's CLASSPATH. But I think all known |
| instances are on PostgreSQL, so this is probably not a concern to anyone. |
| |
