Issue 1379: Show log of administrative actions (permission changes, etc)
Status:  New
Owner: ----
Reported by rlanph...@wikimedia.org, May 7, 2012
In our Gerrit install, we maintain a large number of small subprojects, and have a lot of administrators that can step on each other with changes.  Ideally, we'd have a log of all administrative actions, so that we can know for example when someone adds or removes permissions for an individual, and who the administrator was that did it.

We understand that bigger changes are logged by virtue of being in a config repository:
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/gitweb?p=mediawiki/core.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/meta/config

However, this doesn't seem to extend to individual level permissions.

This is all logged in the account_group_members_audit and account_group_includes_audit tables, it's just not exposed via the UI anywhere.
Summary: Show log of administrative actions (permission changes, etc) (was: Maintain log of administrative actions (permission changes, etc))

I want to switch to https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/35780 where this is then in git history, and we don't have to build UI around it because you can browse the Git history instead. :-)

+1 for storing this in git and dropping the related tables :)
