If you want to search for the reviews related to a commit, you can
type in the full hash code here:
http://users.encs.concordia.ca/~m_mukada/git-review-tracker.html

or append the commit hash to the following url:

https://github.com/mmukadam/postgres/tree/review/<commit_hash>


It's a bit hard to view the reviews on GitHub because the 'review' branch was
designed to be viewed on the command line using a set of simple scripts that
sit on top of the standard git commands.
For example,

to view all reviews Heikki is involved in you can do: git review
--log-reviewer heikki

to view the reviews of particular commit: git review --log
1a1832eb085e5bca198735e5d0e766a3cb61b8fc

You can also create new reviews on a commit and mail them as well as
import reviews from email.

The tool is beta, but it just creates a detached review branch, so it
won't affect master. To remove it all you do is delete the scripts and
the 'review' branch. More info available here:

PS this is part of Murtuza's thesis, so any feedback is appreciated.
If you'd like us to extract reviews from another mailing list or repo,
please let us know


Example output:

git review --log-reviewer heikki
