Impact[edit]
Movement[edit]
This project will enable us to increase developer efficiency by consolidating our code-review and project management tools into Phabricator.
Foundation[edit]
Additionally, this will reduce the maintenance overhead that is incurred by having separate code-review and project management tools.
KPI[edit]
- Q0: By the end of Q2 we plan to have a system in place to manage Differential and Nodepool/Continuous Integration interaction, from the baseline of no system in place.
- Q1: 0% of WMF deployed repositories (but not MediaWiki and Extensions) are managed in Gerrit.
- Q2: 0% of WMF deployed repositories are managed in Gerrit.
