<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>I was wondering if Whamcloud had any plan to upgrade its Gerrit's
UI.</p>
<p>I am only asking because when you compare two different versions
of the same patch, it often happens that some of the differences
are not part of the patch itself, but rather introduced by other
commits that have landed upstream between the two versions. The
current UI makes those indistinguishable from "actual" changes.<br>
</p>
<p>The latest UI -- which can be seen in action on <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="review.gerrithub.io">GerritHub</a>
-- uses a different color to highlight changes that are not
directly introduced by the patch being reviewed.</p>
<p>There are other perks to using the latest versions (such as
reviewing files directly from a patch's "main page"), and of
course, there are also a few things that some might not find to
their liking, but I think the pros outweigh the cons.</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>
Quentin<br>
