Optimize conflicts:id to send predicates to index

The conflicts operator was creating a complex predicate tree that
confused the query rewriter, preventing it from pushing indexed
predicates to the index query, resulting in full index scans being
performed for all open changes.

On a server with 100k open changes and a sluggish index and storage
backend, this bad behavior results in 12s per change screen view to
identify potential conflicts.

Simplify the code by building the OR graph for multiple change matches
at a higher level in ChangeQueryBuilder. ConflictsPredicate now only
has to deal with a single change at a time.

Create a standard AST of just AndPredicate/OrPredicate. The custom
subclass of AndPredicate used by ConflictsPredicate confuses the query
rewriter and makes it harder to join the (status:new OR status:draft)
part of the tree sent by the frontend with the (project:foo ref:bar)
contributed by ConflictsPredicate. That join is necessary to restrict
candidates from the change index to a feasible number.

Drop the IsMergePredicate, introduced in eb9b8a8c77ae by Saša as a fix
for issue 3052. This is not an indexed property and forces the query
rewriter to split the search into several full index scans:

parsed tree with IsMergePredicate:

  (status:new OR status:draft) mergeable2:1
  project:src ref:refs/heads/master
  -change:33
  (path:b.txt OR path:hi.txt OR merge:true)
  conflicts:33

executing predicate tree:

  AND
  + index{p=((status:new OR status:draft) mergeable2:1
          project:src ref:refs/heads/master -change:33)}
  + OR
    - index{p=(path:b.txt OR path:hi.txt)}
    - merge:true
  + conflicts:33

Refixing issue 3052 will require an index schema bump, either
including files different between 1st and 2nd parent in files
field within the index, or indexing a new is:merge boolean field.
Both are out of scope for this commit.

Dropping IsMergePredicate creates an optimal query for the index,
as intended:

  AND
  + index{p=((status:new OR status:draft) mergeable2:1
          project:src ref:refs/heads/master -change:33
          (path:b.txt OR path:hi.txt))}
  + conflicts:33

That addresses the immediate performance impact of the conflicts
query, even though it may omit some potentially conflicting merges.

Gerrit Code Review

Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.

Build Status

Objective

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.

Documentation

For information about how to install and use Gerrit, refer to the documentation.

Source

Our canonical Git repository is located on googlesource.com. There is a mirror of the repository on Github.

Reporting bugs

Please report bugs on the issue tracker.

Contribute

Gerrit is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

Please read the contribution guidelines.

Note that we do not accept Pull Requests via the Github mirror.

Getting in contact

The IRC channel on freenode is #gerrit. An archive is available at: echelog.com.

The Developer Mailing list is repo-discuss on Google Groups.

License

Gerrit is provided under the Apache License 2.0.

Build

Install Bazel and run the following:

    git clone --recursive https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit
    cd gerrit && bazel build release

Install binary packages (Deb/Rpm)

The instruction how to configure GerritForge/BinTray repositories is here

On Debian/Ubuntu run:

    apt-get update & apt-get install gerrit=<version>-<release>

NOTE: release is a counter that starts with 1 and indicates the number of packages that have been released with the same version of the software.

On CentOS/RedHat run:

    yum clean all && yum install gerrit-<version>[-<release>]

On Fedora run:

    dnf clean all && dnf install gerrit-<version>[-<release>]

Use pre-built Gerrit images on Docker

Docker images of Gerrit are available on DockerHub

To run a CentOS 7 based Gerrit image:

    docker run -p 8080:8080 gerritforge/gerrit-centos7[:version]

To run a Ubuntu 15.04 based Gerrit image:

    docker run -p 8080:8080 gerritforge/gerrit-ubuntu15.04[:version]

NOTE: release is optional. Last released package of the version is installed if the release number is omitted.
