I *think* post-review by now has some level of support for posting
a series / selection of git commits as a patch series to ReviewBoard,
so that you can put up the extra commits in a branch, but I'm not
sure.


A few more general comments wrt/ "off-repo" feature branches:

One thing to keep in mind is that even if we had decided to install
the Gitorious software, we would not have allowed free-for-all sign
up (administrative overhead, capacity, liability, etc.), so the merge
request facility would not be available to external contributors.

Since we do plan for KDE developers to be able to make personal
clones, though, KDE developers will be able to host their feature
branches at a central location where they can be accessed by other
developers for collaboration.

Not to imply that access == easy review, of course.
