Code Reviews with Phabricator
 | 
						|
=============================

 | 
						|
If you prefer to use a web user interface for code reviews, you can now submit
 | 
						|
your patches for Clang and LLVM at `LLVM's Phabricator`_ instance.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
While Phabricator is a useful tool for some, the relevant -commits mailing list
 | 
						|
is the system of record for all LLVM code review. The mailing list should be
 | 
						|
added as a subscriber on all reviews, and Phabricator users should be prepared
 | 
						|
to respond to free-form comments in mail sent to the commits list.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sign up
 | 
						|
-------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To get started with Phabricator, navigate to `http://reviews.llvm.org`_ and
 | 
						|
click the power icon in the top right. You can register with a GitHub account,
 | 
						|
a Google account, or you can create your own profile.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Make *sure* that the email address registered with Phabricator is subscribed
 | 
						|
to the relevant -commits mailing list. If your are not subscribed to the commit
 | 
						|
list, all mail sent by Phabricator on your behalf will be held for moderation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note that if you use your Subversion user name as Phabricator user name,
 | 
						|
Phabricator will automatically connect your submits to your Phabricator user in
 | 
						|
the `Code Repository Browser`_.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Requesting a review via the command line
 | 
						|
----------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Phabricator has a tool called *Arcanist* to upload patches from
 | 
						|
the command line. To get you set up, follow the
 | 
						|
`Arcanist Quick Start`_ instructions.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You can learn more about how to use arc to interact with
 | 
						|
Phabricator in the `Arcanist User Guide`_.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Requesting a review via the web interface
 | 
						|
-----------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The tool to create and review patches in Phabricator is called
 | 
						|
*Differential*.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note that you can upload patches created through various diff tools,
 | 
						|
including git and svn. To make reviews easier, please always include
 | 
						|
**as much context as possible** with your diff! Don't worry, Phabricator
 | 
						|
will automatically send a diff with a smaller context in the review
 | 
						|
email, but having the full file in the web interface will help the
 | 
						|
reviewer understand your code.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To get a full diff, use one of the following commands (or just use Arcanist
 | 
						|
to upload your patch):
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* ``git diff -U999999 other-branch``
 | 
						|
* ``svn diff --diff-cmd=diff -x -U999999``
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To upload a new patch:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Click *Differential*.
 | 
						|
* Click *Create Diff*.
 | 
						|
* Paste the text diff or upload the patch file.
 | 
						|
  Note that TODO
 | 
						|
* Leave the drop down on *Create a new Revision...* and click *Continue*.
 | 
						|
* Enter a descriptive title and summary; add reviewers and mailing
 | 
						|
  lists that you want to be included in the review. If your patch is
 | 
						|
  for LLVM, cc llvm-commits; if your patch is for Clang, cc cfe-commits.
 | 
						|
* Click *Save*.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To submit an updated patch:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Click *Differential*.
 | 
						|
* Click *Create Diff*.
 | 
						|
* Paste the updated diff.
 | 
						|
* Select the review you want to from the *Attach To* dropdown and click
 | 
						|
  *Continue*.
 | 
						|
* Click *Save*.
 | 
						|

Reviewing code with Phabricator
 | 
						|
-------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Phabricator allows you to add inline comments as well as overall comments
 | 
						|
to a revision. To add an inline comment, select the lines of code you want
 | 
						|
to comment on by clicking and dragging the line numbers in the diff pane.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You can add overall comments or submit your comments at the bottom of the page.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Phabricator has many useful features, for example allowing you to select
 | 
						|
diffs between different versions of the patch as it was reviewed in the
 | 
						|
*Revision Update History*. Most features are self descriptive - explore, and
 | 
						|
if you have a question, drop by on #llvm in IRC to get help.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note that as e-mail is the system of reference for code reviews, and some
 | 
						|
people prefer it over a web interface, we do not generate automated mail
 | 
						|
when a review changes state, for example by clicking "Accept Revision" in
 | 
						|
the web interface. Thus, please type LGTM into the comment box to accept
 | 
						|
a change from Phabricator.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Committing a change
 | 
						|
-------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Arcanist can manage the commit transparently. It will retrieve the description,
 | 
						|
reviewers, the ``Differential Revision``, etc from the review and commit it to the repository.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  arc patch D<Revision>
 | 
						|
  arc commit --revision D<Revision>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When committing an LLVM change that has been reviewed using
 | 
						|
Phabricator, the convention is for the commit message to end with the
 | 
						|
line:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Differential Revision: <URL>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
where ``<URL>`` is the URL for the code review, starting with
 | 
						|
``http://reviews.llvm.org/``.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note that Arcanist will add this automatically.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This allows people reading the version history to see the review for
 | 
						|
context.  This also allows Phabricator to detect the commit, close the
 | 
						|
review, and add a link from the review to the commit.
 | 
						|
