I am trying to add a patch to gerrit. After
git push ssh://thorque@egit.eclipse.org:29418/egit.git HEAD:refs/heads/master

I get only a
! [remote rejected] HEAD -> master (prohibited by Gerrit)

What do I wrong?

Did you follow the steps given in the Contributor Guide [1] ?

check the following:
- Did you register as user thorque with Gerrit as described in [1] ?
- Does the author/committer email of your patch match the email address you registered with gerrit ?
- Did you upload your public SSH key ?
- What does ssh respond to :
$ ssh -p 29418 thorque@egit.eclipse.org

yes

If I look at my profile in Gerrit there is no emailaddress set. How can I do this?
During registration I have entered my emailadress - of course. But I haven't received any verification email from Gerrit.

yes

Hi Thorsten,

you have to push to refs/for/master instead of refs/heads/master.

Gerrit uses this pseudo-branch to follow patches which will later on go to the master branch. Only committers are allowed to push directly to the master branch (refs/heads/master).

Looking forward to your patch Wink

Stefan

I have created one Project
ssh -p 29418 rampatnaik@107.108.205.104 gerrit create-project -n ram-test
in client pc I have created one folder and created few files .
then
git init
git add file.c
git commit
git remote add origin ssh://107.108.205.104/ram-test

git push origin master:refs/heads/ICS-Android
! [remote rejected] master -> ICS-Android (prohibited by Gerrit)

git push origin master:refs/for/ICS-Android
! [remote rejected] master -> refs/for/ICS-Android (branch ICS-Android not found)

git push origin HEAD:refs/heads/ICS-Android
! [remote rejected] HEAD -> ICS-Android (prohibited by Gerrit)

git push origin HEAD:refs/for/ICS-Android
! [remote rejected] HEAD -> refs/for/ICS-Android (branch ICS-Android not found)

I have another question.
This mesaage "prohibited by Gerrit" means that i have no authentication.
I think your situation is same mine.
So I have to upload changes to gerrit like "repo upload".

Do you know how to upload(not push) changes to gerrit in eclipse???

You first need to create the branch in the server side repository before you can push changes for review for this branch. You can do that from the Gerrit Web UI (http://<host>:<port>/#admin,project,<your-project>,branches or by directly pushing to the not yet existing branch, but this requires you have sufficient privileges.

Such generic questions about Gerrit should rather go to Gerrit's discussion group [1] as they are a bit off-topic for the EGit forum.
