London Java Community: Introduction to Git and Gerrit
Introduction to Git and Gerrit

This event will introduce Git, a highly performant distributed version control system, and compare and contrast to centralised version control systems such as CVS, SVN, ClearCase, and Perforce. With a foundation of Git and its capabilities, we will then introduce Gerrit, a Git-based review system and see how it can easily be integrated into a Git workflow and benefit a fully automated build process. Presented by Matthew McCullough and Alex Blewitt.

During the event, live demos of both using Git and Gerrit will be covered, and will include:

  • How to set up a Git repository
  • How to commit, branch and tag
  • How Git implements a new commit-referencing syntax
  • How to pull and push changes between repositories
  • How to set up and install Gerrit and Jenkins
  • How to push changes to Gerrit for review
  • How to comment on, reject, and approve changes in Gerrit
  • How to hook up builds with Jenkins, retrieving code from Git
