I think it's a bit unjust to unconditionally mention Gerrit in this context as you seem to imply that Gerrit does not store *any* review data in Git.

Even without Dave's upcoming notedb, Gerrit already stores refs/changes in Git, and with the reviewnotes plugin [1] also the outcome of a review in refs/notes/review.
