ChangeInfo: Add new field that contains the current patch set number For PostReview the web UI currently always requests revision information to learn about new revisions that have been uploaded concurrently (uploaded since the change screen was last reloaded). If no revision has been uploaded concurrently the revision data is computed unnecessarily since the revision data that is returned is already known to the web UI (the revision data never changes as result of a PostReview request). Returning the current revision number allows the web UI to request the revision data only if needed. Now the web UI can skip requesting revision information on PostReview and then use the returned current revision number to check whether revision data needs to be reloaded (i.e. do a full reload of the change screen if the returned current revision is not known yet). Not requesting revision data on PostReview will speed up the Send Reply latency, since the expensive loading of revision data no longer needs to be done (e.g. computing parent data is expensive). Adapting the web UI to not request revision data on PostReview and using the returned current revision number instead to decide if a full change reload should be done, will be done in a follow-up change. The new field is named 'current_revision_number', rather than 'current_patch_set_id', to keep the naming consistent with the existing 'current_revision' field. The web UI could also use the existing 'current_revision' field, but this field is only set if the current revision or all revisions are requested (since populating it requires loading the patch sets). Since we want to skip requesting revision data, we need the new 'current_revision_number' field which is always populated. Populating the new 'current_revision_number' field is cheap, since the current patch set ID is available in the Change entity. So far PostReview returned the updated ChangeInfo only when list changes options were requested. Getting to know the current revision number is also useful when no list changes options are requested, hence change PostReview to always return the updated ChangeInfo.

Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.
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.
For information about how to install and use Gerrit, refer to the documentation.
Our canonical Git repository is located on googlesource.com. There is a mirror of the repository on Github.
Please report bugs on the issue tracker.
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.
The Developer Mailing list is repo-discuss on Google Groups.
Gerrit is provided under the Apache License 2.0.

git clone --recurse-submodules https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit cd gerrit && bazel build release
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>]
Docker images of Gerrit are available on DockerHub
To run a CentOS 8 based Gerrit image:
docker run -p 8080:8080 gerritcodereview/gerrit[:version]-centos8
To run a Ubuntu 20.04 based Gerrit image:
docker run -p 8080:8080 gerritcodereview/gerrit[:version]-ubuntu20
NOTE: release is optional. Last released package of the version is installed if the release number is omitted.
