Hi,
Does anyone know how to set default reviewer ? We hope gerrit can send review mail to any persons automaticlly when guys do "git push origin HEAD:refs/for/master".

Not really adding a default reviewer. Instead have the interested reviewers fill in a watched project setting using their Settings > Watched Projects panel. This will allow the server to BCC them on any changes matching their settings, and they can then go into Gerrit to review the change.

Thanks for your answer. I've configured successfully. One more question, Is it possible to configure default reviewer with hooks ?

I searched on web and got the following url that said "Configure default reviewer in .git/config file", but didn't say how to configure. Does anyone know this solution ?

I've never used hooks, but if you do find a suitable one you can
invoke the set-reviewers SSH command to add reviewers to the change.

I think what Martin is talking about is using the possibility to
change the receive-pack command that Gerrit runs when receiving your
commits. That's how the Repo tool sets the initial reviewers when you
upload changes using the --re option.
