critic

"Critic" is an open source web app for doing code reviews. It's written in Python and could use more contributors. Code: https://github.com/jensl/critic See it running: https://critic-review.org/dashboard

We've been using Opera Critic (https://github.com/jensl/critic) where I work for about half a year. We did trial runs with Gerrit, Barkeep and Phabricator before settling on it. My impression is that its almost completely unknown outside of Opera, which is surprising given the feature set, clean UI and active development. The site used to review branches for the Critic project is also a demo: https://critic-review.org It supports the model of having many atomic, reviewable commits on a topic branch. Where it seems to exceed Kiln is in the rebase/fixup workflow. You can push fixup commits in response to issues left by a reviewer. A fixup commit will automatically mark an issue it addresses as resolved when you push based on the lines it changes (the fixup must also be reviewed). You can later rebase the branch to integrate the fixups. It's

I'm using GitHub more and more — ultimately because so many more developers are willing to submit patches there than elsewhere (presumably — at least — because they already have a clue what they're doing, rather than having to work out how to submit something). In the end, what I've ended up doing is using Travis CI with its GitHub hook, which gives the whole suite of tests against each and every patch, as well as using external code review (mostly using Critic (https://github.com/jensl/critic), which supports explicitly rebasing branches, collapsing reviews into all pending commits, and so on, all gracefully — unlike GitHub's code review). While I'd like something better, the issues it throws up (not using the default code review system most obviously) as well as — as you say — the complexity of submitting a PR, are, in my opinion, outwe
