Code Reviewer Recommendation
Hi!
I was investigating code review capabilities of Space. I think, one of the beneficial capabilities of code review tools is reviewer recommendation and Jetbrains Upsource has this capability. I wonder if this capability is included in Space, too. I could not find when I investigate Space, but it did not seem sensible to think that it is not included in Space while one of Jetbrains Products has this capability.
Thank you.

Aybuke - hi,
Thank you for your question!
May I ask you to elaborate a bit on what "reviewer recommendation" means? Is it a kind of code intelligence functionality or anything else? Could you please help me with a real-life case from your Upsource experience?
Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Hi!
I am a student and I have a limited experience with these tools. I just read following lines on Upsource documentation.
Upsource might suggest you the most suitable reviewers (based on previous assignments) which you can select without opening the reviewer selection pop-up.

I am working on a project to investigate Jetbrains Space. Therefore, it is important for me to know Space has a similar feature or not.
Thank you.
Aybuke - hi,
Thank you for the clarification! You are right, Space has a similar feature and might suggest the most suitable reviewers, although the mechanism of their selection is a bit different from Upsource.

Could you please explain the mechanism of Space's selection?
Aybuke - hi,
Thank you for this question!
In order to suggest suitable reviewers Space does some math that takes into account previous authors and editors of changed files and their "weight" that depends on how long ago they have worked on these files.
Please let me know about your questions if any!
