Hi,

Welcome aboard :)

If you're new to gerrit start by reading Setting up Gerrit
<https://wiki.qt.io/Setting_up_Gerrit> and Gerrit Introduction
<https://wiki.qt.io/Gerrit_Introduction> pages on the wiki.

I suggest cloning directly from gerrit, but you can clone from code.qt.io.
The clone address is mentioned in the bottom of this page. So it's either:

git clone https://code.qt.io/qt-creator/qt-creator.git
git remote add gerrit ssh://codereview.qt-project.org/qt-creator/qt-creator

or:

git clone ssh://codereview.qt-project.org/qt-creator/qt-creator


Coding style for qt-creator can be found in the docs
<http://doc.qt.digia.com/qtcreator-extending/coding-style.html>. For some
reason, the qtcreator-extending docs are not generated in doc.qt.io (Leena?)

If you have further questions you can join #qt-creator channel on freenode
(I'm usually not there, but others will be glad to help), or post to this
list.

Happy hacking!
