Description

The Haiku Gerrit instance at https://review.haiku-os.org/ is currently running Gerrit 3.0.12. The latest version is 3.3.1, so it is a good idea to consider upgrading to that. Obviously, a lot of things have changed in between 3.0.X and 3.3.X, so whoever does this may want to check the release notes (including the ones of 3.1 and 3.2) just to make sure the Haiku instance can be upgraded without any difficulties: https://www.gerritcodereview.com/3.1.html https://www.gerritcodereview.com/3.2.html https://www.gerritcodereview.com/3.3.html

Thanks!

Any specific reason to upgrade?

Gerrit makes some changes to the workflow between releases and occasionally create regressions with WebPositive. So, we don't always jump into new releases as they come. Unless we decide we want to use one of the new features or there is a bug that gets in our way.

I see 3.0 is now end-of-life (https://www.gerritcodereview.com/support.html) so maybe it's time to consider an update.

Yeah, not really any specific reasons to upgrade (there might be some new features in the release notes that could be of interest to us, but I haven't had a good look at those yet), apart from the fact that 3.0 is EOL and that we may be missing out on important bug fixes or security updates since we're on an old version of Gerrit.
