Complex queries can be saved as git aliases. For example to create an alias
called gerrit-assigned to show the gerrits which have not been reviewed
yet:
[alias]
# Show assigned reviews.
# (Replace <gerrit-account-id> with your gerrit account number.)
gerrit-assigned = gerrit-query \
--format='"{url} ({branch}) {subject}"' \
is:open \
AND reviewer:<gerrit-account-id> \
AND label:Code-Review=0,<gerrit-account-id> \
AND NOT owner:<gerrit-account-id> \
AND NOT label:Code-Review=-2
