since a couple of weeks we are facing issues with the CI tracked in

Sometimes jobs need to be retriggered several times until they succeed.

Often they timeout or fail with a crashed test JVM.

As a workaround, committers can validate locally and set the verified label manually.

Can we validate the changes using the Gerrit Code Review CI as a temporary workaround?

Yes, this would help for validation but release builds can only succeed on Eclipse CI since they need

access to the signing service which isn't exposed. Do you already have an Eclipse user for the Gerrit CI

which could vote on JGit changes on git.eclipse.org ?

I don’t actually have a “robot user” for the Gerrit CI :-(

Let me see how difficult or easy it is to make one.
