Bazel: Add support for Java 11 and newer Java versions

VanillaJavaBuilder is used to build with Java 10. It turns out, that the
same approach can be used to support build with newer Java versions.

Rename Bazel config setting from java10 to java_next to reflect that
generic approach, so that we can still use java_next even for Java 12
and later versions.

In Java 11 javax.activation module was removed from the JDK. To rectify,
add this test dependency to greenmail library explicitly, but do it
conditionally, depending on what JDK is used.

Similarly, in Java 11 javax.xml.bind module was removed from the JDK.
JGit's WalkEncryption class transitively depends on it. It seems that
gerrit doesn't use this class, so that we can ignore that for now.
Alternatively, we would have to ship javax.xml.bind:jaxb-api with
Gerrit release.war.

Test Plan:

* To build, run:

  $ bazel build --host_javabase=:absolute_javabase \
    --define=ABSOLUTE_JAVABASE=/usr/lib64/jvm/java-11 \
    --define=USE_ABSOLUTE_JAVABASE=true \
    --host_java_toolchain=//:toolchain_vanilla \
    --java_toolchain=//:toolchain_vanilla \
    :release

* To run the tests, --javabase option must be passed as well, because
bazel test runs the test using the target javabase:

  $ bazel build --host_javabase=:absolute_javabase \
  --javabase=:absolute_javabase \
  [...]

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 --recurse-submodules 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.
