## Discuss code
Read old and new versions of files with syntax highlighting and colored
differences. Discuss specific sections with others to make the right changes.

## Manage and serve Git repositories

Gerrit includes Git-enabled SSH and HTTPS servers compatible with all
Git clients.  Simplify management by hosting many Git repositories
together.

Schedule [git gc](https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/config-gerrit.html#gc)
over all managed repositories and
[replicate](https://gerrit.googlesource.com/plugins/replication/+doc/master/src/main/resources/Documentation/config.md)
to geographical mirrors for latency reduction and backup servers for hot
spare redundancy.w

## Extensible through plugins

Gerrit Code Review can be extended and further customized by installing
[server-side plugins](https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/config-plugins.html).
Source code for additional plugins can be found through the
[project listing](https://gerrit.googlesource.com/plugins/).

## Community

[Members](https://www.gerritcodereview.com/members.html) of the Gerrit community are expected to behave within the guidelines of the community's [Code Of Conduct](https://www.gerritcodereview.com/codeofconduct.html) when representing the community.  We would like to [praise](https://www.gerritcodereview.com/kudos.html) some of the more recent accomplishements from the community.

Members of the community will discuss most Gerrit related things on the [repo-discuss](https://groups.google.com/group/repo-discuss) mailing list. For a more real-time Gerrit discussion you may also join our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/HkGbBJHYbY).

Events such as user summits and hackathons are announced on the [repo-discuss](https://groups.google.com/group/repo-discuss) mailing list. You can also see the events posted on our [Calendar](https://calendar.google.com/calendar?cid=Z29vZ2xlLmNvbV91YmIxcGxhNmlqNzg1b3FianI2MWg0dmRpc0Bncm91cC5jYWxlbmRhci5nb29nbGUuY29t), or if you prefer to follow us on [Mastodon](https://mastodon.social/@gerritreview), [Threads](https://www.threads.net/@gerritreview) or [X (Formerly Twitter)](https://twitter.com/gerritreview).

For face-to-face discussions there is a monthly Gerrit community meeting that is hosted in Gerrit's [Discord channel](https://discord.gg/HkGbBJHYbY). Please watch out for the 'Gerrit Community Meeting' event there. Everyone is welcome to join and bring up things they like to discuss. The agenda is completely open, but topics may be added beforehand to the [agenda](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QmrIsyBx52Sk_qWwrcci0hI_SlUWMGiwT8Kp05_ioBw/edit?usp=sharing). Please always prefix topics with your name in square brackets, so that it's clear who added which topic.
