| GitHub plugin |
| ============= |
| |
| Integration between Gerrit and an external repository on GitHub. |
| |
| Integration points |
| ------------------ |
| |
| Provides the basic integration points for working effectively |
| with Gerrit as code-review tool for an existing repository hosted |
| on GitHub: |
| |
| 1. Authentication. (WIP) |
| |
| Users can login to Gerrit using the same username and credentials |
| in GitHub. Gerrit login points to GitHub for generating the SSO token |
| to be used for the code-review authenticated session. |
| |
| 2. Push-Pull replication. (TODO) |
| |
| Existing GitHub repositories are automatically replicated to Gerrit |
| for the purpose of performing code-review and pushing back changes |
| once approved. Additionally to the standard Gerrit push replication, |
| supports as well the ability to pull branches from remote GitHub |
| repositories. |
| |
| 3. Pull-request to Change. (TODO) |
| |
| Hooks into the GitHub pull-request mechanism to automatically create |
| a Change in Gerrit submitted for review. |
