| <p>The Android Open Source Project (AOSP) uses a web-based code review tool |
| known as "gerrit". The image below is a flowchart that details what happens to |
| a patch, once it's been written. Though it may appear complex, the majority of |
| the steps below are performed in the web application.</p> |
| <p>For full instructions on how to get set up to use gerrit and git, please |
| see <a href="{@docRoot}source/submit-patches.html">the Submitting Patches |
