Hi, I've got a few things I'd like to put up for code review, which I've been putting off because I can only think of doing them either one by one (carrying each to completion before moving on to the next) or by using parallel working copies. Neither is what I'd call efficient, and I'm sure there must be a more clever way to achieve the same thing, possible involving git branches for instance.
Can someone point me in the right direction, maybe to a tutorial of sorts that outlines how to do several code reviews from a single working copy? I'm not exactly familiar with using branches; I just tried to create one, apply a patch, commit it and then push to gerrit. That was a bit of a failure; the commit to my local branch was also applied to the branch I thought I'd branched off, and the push to gerrit was refused: %> git push gerrit fatal: You are pushing to remote 'gerrit', which is not the upstream of your current branch '5.6.0', without telling me what to push to update which remote branch. Exit 128 %> git push gerrit 5.6.0:5.6.0 X11 forwarding request failed on channel 0 Counting objects: 6, done. Delta compression using up to 4 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (6/6), done.
