Prefer VTL template overrides to Soy

To ease the transition to Soy, prefer Velocity template overrides in
Gerrit installations for email templates that have already been
converted. Abstracts the template system that ultimately gets used by
introducing the `textTemplate` method on the OutgoingEmail base class.

When this method is invoked with a template name, (e.g.
textTemplate("Footer")), it will evaluate a template according to the
following priorities:

* If the website directory contains a Velocity override template with
  that name, then use it. The presence of this file means the
  administrator has modified their templates before Soy was an option.
  OTHERWISE...

* If the website directory contains a Soy override template with that
  name, then use it. The presence of this file means the administrator
  has modified their email templates after Soy has been introduced. Note
  that the admin must remove the VTL version before the Soy template is
  used.
  OTHERWISE...

* Use the Soy resource version of the specified file. (`textTemplate`
  assumes that there is no VTL resource.)

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.
