Description

Send changes to remote server to create code reviews.

For the specified projects, compares the local branches to the remote branches updated during the last git repo sync. git-repo prompts you to select one or more of the branches that haven’t been uploaded for review.

git repo upload command will start an editor for you with the following text as an example. Add custom options and choose the branches that need to be uploaded in the editor.

# Step 1: Input your options for code review
#
# Note: Input your options below the comments and keep the comments unchanged
##############################################################################

# [Title]       : one-line message below as the title of code review

# [Description] : multiple lines of text as the description of code review

# [Issue]       : multiple lines of issue IDs for cross references

# [Reviewer]    : multiple lines of user names as the reviewers for code review

# [Cc]          : multiple lines of user names as the watchers for code review

# [Draft]       : a boolean (yes/no, or true/false) to turn on/off draft mode

# [Private]     : a boolean (yes/no, or true/false) to turn on/off private mode

# Step 2: Select project and branches for upload
#
# Note: Uncomment the branches to upload, and not touch the project lines
##############################################################################
#
# project foo:
#  branch topic1 ( 3 commit(s)) to remote branch master:
#         03c01e211122b49fe05f48e08fd3e1dd1c52e57e
#         ec78989440697fbc13bfbd3ea082fe9b3fc5f2d7
#         4e599aa284ed64ba12ba1b5b06fbbd3199846434
#
# project bar:
#  branch topic1 ( 2 commit(s)) to remote branch master:
#         47a3cae46019893db78a19906dda97825279f288
#         ced1a1d6e16bc3f8051f87621eb69ba2a7e10672 

The first section of the text is used for adding options for git repo upload. Lines begin with the character “#” are comments. Please do not change these comments, for git-repo needs to find parameter names in the comments.

• Below the line started with “# [Title]”, add one-line title for the code review to be generated.
• Below the line started with “# [Description]”, add description for the code review to be generated.
• Below the line started with “# [Issue]”, add issue number for reference.
• Below the line started with “# [Reviewer]”, add reviewers (one reviewer on each line, or separated by commas).
• Below the line started with “# [Cc]”, add watchers.
• Below the line started with “# [Draft]”, input “yes” to turn on draft mode.

The second section lists projects and branches that are ready to publish. Uncomment the branches you want to publish. git-repo will create code reviews for these publish branches.

If no branch is ready to publish (all branches are commented out), git repo upload will abort.

Save the content and quit the editor, git-repo will continue to send local commits to remote repositories to create/update code reviews.

For example: in the following text, the leading character “#” at the beginning of the line of branch topic1 of project foo has been deleted, while other comment letter “#” are preserved:

# project foo:
  branch topic1 ( 3 commit(s)) to remote branch master:

#         ec78989440697fbc13bfbd3ea082fe9b3fc5f2d7
#         4e599aa284ed64ba12ba1b5b06fbbd3199846434

# project bar:
#  branch topic1 ( 2 commit(s)) to remote branch master:
#         47a3cae46019893db78a19906dda97825279f288
#         ced1a1d6e16bc3f8051f87621eb69ba2a7e10672 

Save and quit the editor, git repo upload will only send changes of project foo, and create code review for it.
