Public bug reported:

We've got a "change-merged" hook script set up in reviews.mahara.org,
which automatically posts a comment to Launchpad when a patch is merged
and the patch commit message contains a launchpad bug number.

I think it would be nice to have a similar script to automatically post
a comment when a patch is first uploaded into gerrit. That way, a person
looking at the Launchpad bug will be able to easily see that there's a
patch waiting to be reviewed for that bug. Currently, we ask developers
to post such a comment manually, but they often forget to do that.

So, since there's an appropriate gerrit hook (
https://git.eclipse.org/r/Documentation/config-
hooks.html#_patchset_created ) we might as well do it automatically.
