+1. The key selling point for me is the Gerrit verify jobs.

Hi all,

Will Thym use GitHub or Gerrit as Git server?

I would prefere Gerrit for the following reasons:
* You end up with a cleaner history because it doesn't create automatically "Merge" commits, and it has a 1 change = 1 commit model (as opposed to GitHub PR, 1 change = N commits)
* It has better comparison mechanism between the various version of a patch than GitHub has for Pull Request
* It's quite easy to automate build and tests of Gerrit patches and to get CI voting on issues to identify regressions before they're merged. Those build and tests
