Support creating review requests for git changes

[rutwickjain-zz]

Hey,

I created a test Git repository for POC. I am trying to integrated Git repository with ereviewboard through Eclipse(Juno version).

I installed it through this link --> http://rombert.github.com/ereviewboard/update/ Plus, I installed subclipse integration through this link --> http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x

I am able to add a task repository for my reviewboard server and even got it validated. I also created a task query and it fetch the already created review requests. It worked till here.

Now, I made some changes in my file( in Eclipise IDE) . I added it to the index and even committed it (without pushing the changes back to origin ).

Now, the blocker is that I am unable to see "Create review-request" option when I right click on my project tab or any changed file.

Can you guide me to the right way ?

Moreover, I have read that ereviewboard doesn't support Git. Please confirm this.

I have installed EGit for Eclipise and Git integration. And I also selected the ereviewboard sub-module for EGIt during the installation and it was installed successfully.

Thanks, Rutwick

Thanks for the report. Right now we don't support creating review requests from Git.

Is this something that you're willing to contribute? I am happy to guide you through the process.

Oh, thanks for the confirmation.

I am not a developer. Not sure if I would be able to contribute with my current skills. But still, let me know the process to do so. I can try at-least.

@rutwickjain - I see that you closed this issue. I think this is a valid scenario so I'm keeping it open.

As for contributing the changes yourself, I'd be happy to help, although it's not going to be simple. First step would be to perform a git clone of the repository and import it to Eclipse. You need a recent version of Eclipse ( Kepler? ) and m2e installed. After the projects are imported you will be prompted to install additional plug-ins. After restarting, double-click the ereviewboard.target file and set it as the target platform. At this point everything should compile just fine and you should be able to start making changes.
