ChangeRebuilderImpl: Handle ChangeMessages with null PatchSet.Id

Long ago we made the design decision in NoteDb to associate every
commit in the meta graph with a patch set ID. The actual reason for
this was somewhat obscure: we need to have at least one footer in
every commit so we can tell where the ChangeMessage text (the body of
the commit) ends and the footers begin.

A consequence of this decision is that we cannot represent
ChangeMessages that have null PatchSet.Id fields in NoteDb. In fact,
trying to convert those fields was resulting in NPE, similar to
I3723b0c9, but the fix is a little more complicated.

Note that we have pretty much eliminated ChangeMessages with null
patch set IDs from the code, since we already enforce that every
ChangeUpdate is associated with a PatchSet.Id. (The one remaining
exception is in MergeOp#abandonAllOpenChangesForDeletedProject, which
is moot since in a NoteDb world such changes just get deleted.) So
this change is just about converting old messages that may for
whatever reason be lacking the field.

In ChangeRebuilderImpl, after sorting events but before combining them
into ChangeUpdates, ensure that all psId fields are populated, using
the latest patch set of the change encountered so far. This is
analogous to the behavior in the UI where if you navigate to a change
screen, it defaults to the latest patch set; then if you add a
ChangeMessage, it likewise is associated with the latest patch set.

ChangeBundle is also modified to skip comparing the patch set ID field
when the one in ReviewDb is null.

Gerrit Code Review

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

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.

Build

Install Buck and run the following:

    git clone --recursive https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit
    cd gerrit && buck 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>]

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