Hey,
gravatar.com is a service that allows you to get a little avatar of a user by passing its
email address in an api call.
Gitweb supports gravatar, which is disabled by default
You can see an example for the use on fedorahosted:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=rhq/rhq.git;a=summary
and
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=rhq/rhq.git;a=commit;h=56faefbcf1465a4...
Enabling gravatar allows to better give the community of contributors a face.
On
ovirt.org, gitweb is handled by the gerrit application (and not standalone).
To enable it one needs to put a gitweb config file into
/home/gerrit2/review_site/etc/ as gitweb.perl
and then restart gerrit (see
http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/Documentation/config-gitweb.html#_internal_ma... )
When would be a good point to do the latter?
weekend i guess, though i think if gerrit is down for a few minutes any
time of the day it should be ok as well.
my main concern is this should be documented to verify after a gerrit
upgrade.
