No, you're not alone - I feel that my inbox is growing faster than I can
respond, and I have in the past committed the wrong version of a patch
when I missed that a followup was posted later.
Ideally, a person wanting to use this system should be able to setup
their email to filter all libvir-list traffic containing "PATCH" in the
subject line, then create an account on the patch review system and
handle all patch review via the tool's interface
Agreed - the tool must be able to interact well with the mailing list,
with the list as the primary archive of all patch action. I don't know
if periodic summary mails of all pending patch series helps or just adds
to the list traffic, but I've seen it work for other lists to have the
periodic reminders of all pending patch series work out well as a way to
see what still needs reviewing.
Unfortunately, I don't have enough experience with any of the tools that
you listed to recommend (or reject) any of them, but I'm willing to give
a new tool a shot if it can help my productivity.
