The documentation for Gerrit when it comes to formatting comments is quite lacking. Here is short list created by trial and error and looking at the source code in: | |
./gerrit-gwtexpui/src/main/java/com/google/gwtexpui/safehtml/client/SafeHtml.java | |
Lists: | |
* List item 1 | |
* List item 2 | |
- List item 1 | |
- List item 2 | |
Block quote: | |
> This will turn into a block quote. | |
> This will also turn into a block quote. | |
Code blocks: | |
This will become a code block because it has a leading space. | |
This will become a code block because there is a newline and a space on the next line. | |
Do you notice the leading space? | |
This line should also become a code block | |
because it uses tabs. But who does that? | |
That's it. Someone should create a markdown plugin :-) |

Better yet: CommonMark ;)
Also nowadays you can use emojis everywhere (except GitHub comments). Even if you are using Jenkins and Gerrit Trigger Plugin to send feedback from CI (i.e. add ❌ to Build failed
message)
Code blocks don't work
I think first step would be to star and comment on https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=9299 ticket if we want this to ever become a reality.
Just found myself here after frustration that I cannot format long url for nice display in comment

@edanilenko ...
Are you requesting
strikethrough? Telling us it can be added but not telling us how? If the former, I'm pretty sure @dlebech isn't involved in making Gerrit, otherwise he wouldn't need "trial and error and looking at the source code". If the latter, well... that's just mean.
