The Gerrit code review iceberg, episode 4

Blog post by PulkoMandy on Wed, 2025-12-31 23:30

Welcome to most likely the last blog post of the year!

We continue our exploration of old change requests on the Gerrit code review tool that have been waiting for several years for someone to pick them up and get them merged. There are currently 350 commits awaiting review in the code review tool. The oldest one is now untouched since early 2019.

First of all, let’s look at updates for the changes from the previous blog post in the series: one of them has found a new owner, and DriveSetup may soon get its long awaited menu to read and write disk images to partitions!

The Gerrit code review iceberg, episode 3

Recently some discussions on the forum led to asking about the status of our Gerrit code review. There are a lot of changes there that have been inactive for several years, with no apparent interest from anyone. To be precise, there are currently 346 commits waiting for review (note that Gerrit, unlike Github and other popular code review tools, works on a commit-by-commit basis, so each commit from a multiple-commit change is counted separately). The oldest one has not seen any comments since 2018.
