Hi,

I'm using gerrit query to fetch patches information that are yet to be
merged. This the command I use:
gerrit query --current-patch-set project:<proj> branch:<ref> is:open

and it dumps a lot of information on my prompt but I cannot find
anything that tells me if a patch depends on other(s).

I know this information is available on Gerrit web interface but I
need to get this information automatically.

Any ideas?

I'm afraid the query command won't help you here. You'll have to download
the commit in question, the destination branch, and do a log operation.
Something like this:

git init
git fetch <base url> <refspec> refs/heads/<dest branch>:<dest branch>
git log <dest branch>..<patch sha-1>

I don't see a reason why the query command couldn't be extended to
include this information as well.

I think this request covers it: http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=1020
