Hi,

When adding git clones, one has to log in to the reviewboard host machine and create it. Then one has to log into reviewboard UI in a browser to create the repository associated with it.

It would be great if the whole thing could be done from the command line, I can run a shell script then to create the git clone and repository all in one go, without having to go near the browser. (Donr get me wrong, I like the browser, but as a sysadmin going to 2 places when 1 will do is stupid.)

something like:

rb-create-repository --name $name --path $path --mirror $mirror-path --type $type --btu $bug-tracker-url

or similar.

Maybe something already exists, I saw a post a while back that Yahoo! are running things from the command line.(?)

1.5.4 contains a webapi resource for repository creation, which means you can use a curl command-line to do this. For details, please see http://www.reviewboard.org/docs/manual/dev/webapi/2.0/resources/repository-list/#POST
