[WMF-outreach-staff] Who wants to run a Git/Gerrit tutorial?

[Chad Horohoe]

Hi,

I'd be more than happy to handle this (and in fact, I had originally written
a talk proposal to do so). Couple of replies inline:

Converting extensions from SVN->Git isn't really a process that can
be done quickly or that a new Gerrit user would be empowered to do
--the conversion requires shell access and I've been doing them all so
far. Creating new repos for new extensions (or extensions coming from
Github/on-wiki) should be doable--that doesn't take nearly as long.

I think maybe Roan could walk people through the CR process
once we've gotten them on Gerrit, if he's willing :)

Maybe a "How do I?" session after the tutorial is over? There's bound
to be lots of questions of that nature.
