GitLab/Gerrit to GitLab

This is intended as a concise reference document for experienced users of Gerrit, explaining how concepts and workflows map to GitLab features, and indexing into the rest of our guides as well as upstream docs.

Gerrit supports code reviews ranging from -2 to +2 on changes. On GitLab, these roughly correspond to:


 * -2: No direct equivalent. If you want to make sure that no one fails to notice your objection before merging the change, you can edit the merge request title or description, e. g. adding the note DNM . Repositories are also likely, by policy, to be configured so that all comment threads must be resolved before merge.
 * -1: Leave a comment or start a thread with your objection.
 * 0: Leave a comment or start a thread. (On Gerrit, you can also change your vote back to 0 to remove a different vote, such as a +1; in GitLab, this would mean revoking your approval.)
 * +1: Approve the merge request and/or leave a thumbs-up reaction.
 * +2: Merge the merge request. (TODO: will we still have a gate-and-submit build and automatic merges?)
