This is a new 7.0.1 ReviewBoard setup using a remote Git repository.  It's mostly up and running.  I've added the remote Git repository and I can use 'rbt post' to create a Draft Review.  Then I can edit and publish it using the web gui or rbt.  However if I navigate to the "New Review Request" in the web gui I see my repo in the left pane but when I click on it my only option in the right pane is a "Select" button with "or drag and drop a diff file to begin" so I can't initiate a review.  I expected to be able to select branches and see general repo information and initiate a review?  Should I be able to see things like that?  If so, any idea why I don't?

Thanks

The post-commit (post-push) UI is only implemented for certain hosting services where we have both the APIs we need and the demand from users to implement it. For the vast majority of cases, our workflow recommendation is to use rbtools to review code before it gets landed into a central repository.
