Gerrit is a git patch review system that we (Google/Android) use for
android development (kernel and otherwise).  Some other folks like
Qualcomm, and TI (see http://review.omapzoom.org/) have adopted it as
well.  We're still happy to accept patches via email and
review/discuss them on the usual mailing lists as well.  It'd be cool
to get an automated process set up to slurp submitted patches into
Gerrit at some point, and further unify the two different workflows.

Gerrit's very actively maintained by Shawn O. Pearce:

Here's an example of a patch in Gerrit (though a dull one -- when
logged in you can basically annotate the diff with line by line
comments, etc, which is pretty slick if you like that sort of thing):
