<h2 id="what-if-i-dont-like-gerrit-and-would-prefer-insert-tool-here">What if I dont like Gerrit and would prefer (insert tool here)?</h2>
<p>Weve got a fair bit of experience with the existing toolset and adding new tools for which weve already got an answer is currently out of scope. We think the existing tools (like Gerrit) work well, and should only get better as we update them. The system is able to scale because we do not need multiple implementations of different software that solve similar problems.</p>
<h2 id="why-cant-we-use-giteas-issue-tracker-and-wiki">Why can't we use Gitea's issue tracker and wiki?</h2>
<p>For scaling and redundancy purposes we are actually running a number of independent Giteas behind a load balancer. We can keep git repos in sync from Gerrit reasonably well, but the issue tracker and wiki functionality would need another level of state syncing. Once Gitea can be run as a proper cluster this may change, but until then the functionality is limited.</p>

<p>These will be updated when moved to their new OpenDev locations</p>
