Gertty is a console-based interface to the Gerrit Code Review system.

As compared to the web interface, the main advantages are:

• Workflow -- the interface is designed to support a workflow similar

to reading network news or mail. In particular, it is designed to deal with a large number of review requests across a large number of projects.

• Offline Use -- Gertty syncs information about changes in

subscribed projects to a local database and local git repos. All review operations are performed against that database and then synced back to Gerrit.

• Speed -- user actions modify locally cached content

and need not wait for server interaction.

• Convenience -- because Gertty downloads all

changes to local git repos, a single command instructs it to checkout a change into that repo for detailed examination or testing of larger changes.
