 # Code Reviews
 
 Code reviews are a central part of developing high-quality code for Chromium.
 All changes must be reviewed.
 
 The bigger patch-upload-and-land process is covered in more detail the
 [contributing code](https://www.chromium.org/developers/contributing-code)
 page.
 
 # Code review policies
 
 Ideally the reviewer is someone who is familiar with the area of code you are
-touching. If you have doubts, look at the git blame for the file and the OWNERS
-files (see below).
+touching. Any committer can review code, but an owner must provide a review
+for each directory you are touching. If you have doubts, look at the git blame
+for the file and the `OWNERS` files (see below).
 
-Any committer can review code, but there must be at least one owner for each
-directory you are touching. If you have multiple reviewers, make it clear in
-the message you send requesting review what you expect from each reviewer.
-Otherwise people might assume their input is not required or waste time with
-redundant reviews.
+To indicate a positive review, the reviewer types "LGTM" (case insensitive)
+into a comment on the code review. This stands for "Looks Good To Me." The text
+"not LGTM" will cancel out a previous positive review.
 
-## Expectations for all reviewers
+If you have multiple reviewers, make it clear in the message you send
+requesting review what you expect from each reviewer. Otherwise people might
+assume their input is not required or waste time with redundant reviews.
+
+#### Expectations for all reviewers
 
   * Aim to provide some kind of actionable response within 24 hours of receipt
     (not counting weekends and holidays). This doesn't mean you have to have
     done a complete review, but you should be able to give some initial
     feedback, request more time, or suggest another reviewer.
 
   * It can be nice to indicate if you're away in your name in the code review
     tool. If you do this, indicate when you'll be back.
 
   * Don't generally discourage people from sending you code reviews. This
     includes writing a blanket ("slow") after your name in the review tool.
 
 ## OWNERS files
 
-In various directories there are files named "OWNERS" that list the email
+In various directories there are files named `OWNERS` that list the email
 addresses of people qualified to review changes in that directory. You must
 get a positive review from an owner of each directory your change touches.
 
-Owners files are recursive, so each file also applies to its subdirectories. If
-an owner file contains the text "set noparent" it will stop owner propagation
-from parent directories.
+Owners files are recursive, so each file also applies to its subdirectories.
+It's generally best to pick more specific owners. People listed in higher-level
+directories may have less experience with the code in question. More detail on
+the owners file format is provided in the "More information" section below.
 
-Tip: The "git cl owners" command can help find owners.
+*Tip:* The `git cl owners` command can help find owners.
 
 While owners must approve all patches, any committer can contribute to the
 review. In some directories the owners can be overloaded or there might be
 people not listed as owners who are more familiar with the low-level code in
 question. In these cases it's common to request a low-level review from an
 appropriate person, and then request a high-level owner review once that's
 complete. As always, be clear what you expect of each reviewer to avoid
 duplicated work.
 
-### Expectations for owners
+Owners do not have to pick other owners for reviews. Since they should already
+be familiar with the code in question, a thorough review from any appropriate
+committer is sufficient.
 
-  * OWNERS files should contain only people actively reviewing code in that
+#### Expectations of owners
+
+The existing owners of a directory approve additions to the list. It is
+preferrable to have many directories, each with a smaller number of specific
+owners rather than large directories with many owners. Owners must:
+
+  * Demonstrate excellent judgment, teamwork and ability to uphold Chrome
+    development principles.
+
+  * Be already acting as an owner, providing high-quality reviews and design
+    feedback
+
+  * Be a Chromium project member with full commit access of at least 6
+    months tenure.
+
+  * Have submitted a substantial number of non-trivial changes to the affected
     directory.
 
-  * If you aren't doing code reviews in a directory, remove yourself. Don't
-    try to discourage people from sending reviews in comments in the OWNERS
-    file. This includes writing "slow" or "emeritus" after your name.
+  * Have committed or reviewed substantial work to the affected directory
+    within the last 90 days.
 
-  * If the code review load is unsustainable, work to expand the number of
-    owners.
+  * Have the bandwidth to contribute to reviews in a timely manner. If the load
+    is unsustainable, work to expand the number of owners. Don't try to
+    discourage people from sending reviews, including writing "slow" or
+    "emeritus" after your name.
+
+Seldom-updated directories may have exceptions. Directories in `third_party`
+should list those most familiar with the library.
 
 ## TBR ("To Be Reviewed")
 
 "TBR" is our mechanism for post-commit review. It should be used rarely and
 only in cases where a review is unnecessary or as described below. The most
 common use of TBR is to revert patches that broke the build.
 
-TBR does not mean "no review." A reviewer on a TBRed on a change should still
-review the change. If there comments after landing the author is still
-obligated to address them in a followup patch.
+TBR does not mean "no review." A reviewer TBR-ed on a change should still
+review the change. If there comments after landing the author is obligated to
+address them in a followup patch.
 
 Do not use TBR just because a change is urgent or the reviewer is being slow.
-Work to contact a reviewer who can do your review in a timely manner.
+Contact the reviewer directly or find somebody.
 
 To send a change TBR, annotate the description and send email like normal.
 Otherwise the reviewer won't know to review the patch.
 
   * Add the reviewer's email address in the code review tool's reviewer field
     like normal.
 
   * Add a line "TBR=<reviewer's email>" to the bottom of the change list
     description.
 
   * Push the "send mail" button.
 
 ### TBR-ing certain types of mechanical changes
 
 Sometimes you might do something that affects many callers in different
 directories. For example, adding a parameter to a common function in //base.
 If the updates to the callers is mechanical, you can:
 
-  * Get a normal owner of the lower-level directory (in this example, //base)
-    you're changing to do a proper review of those changes.
+  * Get a normal owner of the lower-level directory you're changing (in this
+    example, `//base`) to do a proper review of those changes.
 
   * Get _somebody_ to review the downstream changes. This is often the same
     person from the previous step but could be somebody else.
 
   * Add the owners of the affected downstream directories as TBR.
 
 This process ensures that all code is reviewed prior to checkin and that the
 concept of the change is reviewed by a qualified person, but you don't have to
 track down many individual owners for trivial changes to their directories.
 
 ### TBR-ing documentation updates
 
 You can TBR documentation updates. Documentation means markdown files, text
 documents, and high-level comments in code. At finer levels of detail, comments
 in source files become more like code and should be reviewed normally (not
 using TBR). Non-TBR-able stuff includes things like function contracts and most
 comments inside functions.
 
-  * Use your best judgement. If you're changing something very important,
-    tricky, or something you may not be very familiar with, ask for the code
-    review up-front.
+  * Use good judgement. If you're changing something very important, tricky,
+    or something you may not be very familiar with, ask for the code review
+    up-front.
 
   * Don't TBR changes to policy documents like the style guide or this document.
 
   * Don't mix unrelated documentation updates with code changes.
 
   * Be sure to actually send out the email for the code review. If you get one,
-    please actually read the changes. Even the best writers have editors and
-    checking prose for clarity is much faster than checking code for
-    correctness.

+## More information
+
+### OWNERS file details
+
+Refer to the [source code](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools/+/master/owners.py)
+for all details on the file format. 
+
+This example indicates that two people are owners, in addition to any owners
+from the parent directory. `git cl owners` will list the comment after an
+owner address, so this is a good place to include restrictions or special
+instructions.
+```
+# You can include comments like this.
+a@chromium.org
+b@chromium.org  # Only for the frobinator.
+```
+
+A `*` indicates that all committers are owners:
+```
+*
+```
+
+The text `set noparent` it will stop owner propagation from parent directories.
+This is used for specialized code. In this example, only the two listed people
+are owners:
+```
+set noparent
+a@chromium.org
+b@chromium.org
+```
+
+The `per-file` directive allows owners to be added that apply only to files
+matching a pattern. In this example, owners from the parent directiory
+apply, plus one person for some classes of files, and all committers are
+owners for the readme:
+```
+per-file foo_bar.cc=a@chromium.org
+per-file foo.*=a@chromium.org
+
+per-file readme.txt=*
+```
+
+Other `OWNERS` files can be included by reference by listing the path to the
+file with `file://...`. This example indicates that only the people listed in
+`//ipc/SECURITY_OWNERS` can review the messages files:
+```
+per-file *_messages*.h=set noparent
+per-file *_messages*.h=file://ipc/SECURITY_OWNERS
+```
