Does this mean new links will be in place?  I've used links like
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/gitweb?p=mediawiki%2Fcore.git;a=commit;h=f04103185a071fc7ceb7f25daf1467791f2ae391
and it would be nice if  those didn't break.

Yes, the urls will be changing.

If we can come up with some sane rewrite rules, I think we could
redirect gitweb urls to gitblit.

Apache. The configuration of Gerrit can be found in the puppet
repo, in templates/apache/gerrit.wikimedia.org.erb.

+1 -- like Mark I've used gitweb URLs in several places that I wouldn't
like to see breaking (one of them is original source of images moved to
commons from git).

I realized a little bit ago that I was a bit ambitious in calling the deployment
2.6, so please let me clarify.

Gerrit doesn't name their master 2.6alpha like we do 1.21alpha, which was
the source of my confusion. We're actually going to use 2.5.1-1225-gd52acbc,
which is based on Wednesday's nightly build of d52acbc from master. This is
effectively what will become 2.6 upstream when they finally release ;-)

Just wanted to be explicit about which version we're deploying, since I got
some questions on IRC a bit ago about 2.5 vs. 2.6.

Rest assured--we will still be getting the latest and greatest. And we're still
on target for late Monday/early Tuesday.

Friendly reminder that Gerrit will be coming down in about an hour
for the upgrade. During the upgrade, you may be able to hit Gerrit
intermittently as it'll restart several times. Once the dust has
settled, I'll be sure to let everyone know.

Took a few minutes longer than expected, but we're back up and
everything's live. We had to deploy a newer version to grab one
last fix we spotted during the upgrade. Our deployed version is
now 2.5.1-1266-gcc231e1.

There might be a few problems left over with the IRC notifications,
I'll tackle those tomorrow (making sure replication is working properly
now). If you spot any other problems, please let me know.

Cool, well done. The UI has become more polished, it seems, and considerably 
more responsive. It feels a lot faster than before. LGTM!

Roan was hitting this earlier, but I wasn't able to replicate at the
time. It's on my todo list to check tomorrow morning.

I am liking the new UI features. However -- I notice that I seem to have
lost +2 rights to mediawiki/core. Are we rolling back the policy that all
foundation developers have +2?

Yep. Logged in as mwal...@wikimedia.org. It's odd because I still have +2
on the fundraising repos. Maybe the ACL computation changed and I'm not in
some group that I should have been in?

Thanks for performing the upgrade!

I'm not sure if anything but the reviewer bot (and the UI) uses the
API, but it has been *moved* from
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/gerrit/rpc/ChangeDetailService to
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/gerrit_ui/rpc/ChangeDetailService . It
will return an Internal Server Error when the original URL is accessed
(with POST data, from the browser it's 404).

This might be related to the errors seen by Matt and Roan: old
javascript code trying to access the old URL.

As we just discussed on IRC, the JSON-RPC interface has largely
been removed and replaced by the RESTful APIs which are meant
for public consumption and are going to be much more stable. For
anyone who's interested in developing things against the API, there
are docs: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/Documentation/rest-api.html

The problem Roan and others were having with adding reviewers
was unrelated, and should be fixed now.

Some other new features I've noticed that haven't been listed:
* Showing who has the ability to vote in each category (easily identify
project owners).
* Switch patchsets while in diff view.
* Changes show if they need to be rebased.
