git-review
Tool to submit code to Gerrit
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you use Gerrit for code review. The tool is production-stable, has minimal dependencies, and carries no known vulnerabilities. However, verify compatibility with your Gerrit server version given the 452-day gap since the last release—contact the maintainers or test in a non-critical environment first if your Gerrit instance is recent.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.6 or later; Gerrit server and Git must be configured and accessible.
- Low install friction with a single runtime dependency (requests).
- The package is in production/stable status but aging—last release was 452 days ago, so active maintenance is not recent.

What it is and what it does
git-review is a command-line tool designed to simplify the workflow of submitting Git branches to Gerrit for code review. It bridges Git and Gerrit, allowing developers to push branches for review without manually constructing Gerrit-specific push commands. The tool has been in production use since 2011 and supports modern Python versions (3.6 through 3.11).
The package depends only on requests for HTTP communication and installs with minimal friction. It is classified as production/stable but has not seen a release in over a year, which may indicate either stable maturity or reduced active maintenance. The Apache 2.0 license is permissive, making it suitable for both open-source and commercial projects.
Use it for
- Streamline code submission to Gerrit-based projects without manually constructing push commands.
- Automate branch submission in CI/CD pipelines that use Gerrit for code review.
- Simplify Gerrit workflows for developers new to Gerrit or migrating from other review systems.
- Integrate Gerrit review submission into custom Git-based development scripts.
