I strongly dislike Gerrit, it's really hard to learn and even after
some time I still can't figure out how to use it correctly.
Both GitHub and GitLab (on gitlab.com) would be a great improvement.
Not sure though if this is "allowed" for GNU projects (it's probably
not about the license, but being "GNU LilyPond").
