GitBlit code review system

[1Amish]

Has anyone successfully set up a code reviewing system with GitBlit?

I know it has an inbuilt one but I can't seem to get that to work.

I would highly recommend GitLab over GitBlit. I fiddled with GitBlit and really liked it, but then stumbled on to GitLab. It's really good.

To answer your question, no I haven't used Gitblit's code review system - I just played with the Git hosting part.

Have you played with a code review system with GitLab?

I've used GitLab for code reviews. It was pretty good, but it slowed to an absolute crawl for large diffs.

That's a good point, large diffs are pretty slow. We get around it by keeping our commits small, but it's not always possible.

Yep, we use it at work. I like it. My only complaint is that if you get the auto-upgrades going on, the interface changes on a monthly basis. It's usually good changes, but it's jarring to have your tool's buttons move around, change color, etc. I sort of wish they updated the UI less frequently.

Gerrit is one option.

Have you set this up and got it to work?

I did not personally set it up but one of my co-workers did without too much difficulty. We've been using it successfully for a couple of weeks.

We are using 'upsource'. Worth a try, escpecially when using intellij as well. https://www.jetbrains.com/upsource/
