Ah! It never occurred to me that "Reply" meant "Commit" / "Push"
/ "Merge" or even "Review". I saw only "Cherry Pick" / " Cancel"
which did not match my requirements. What a truly awful UI.
What if I don't want to "Merge" since it leads to double history
entries that on normal projects are difficult to disentangle? Ok,
SimRel commits are highly orthogonal. But Push gives a nice clean
history and forces a Rebase that just occasionally Merge can fail
to replicate. IMHO if a Merge is necessary the Gerrit Review
should iterate.
Ed,
Normally you would use the Gerrit review link to finish the
processing. E.g., for the last commit I used this link:
https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/132049/
After the initial commit, I waited for the build to finish so
that CI Bot (one of the automatic reviewers) adds a +1. That
takes about 5 minutes. Then I used the Reply... (or the Review
+2 button, which will be there after the successful build) to
make it possible to "Submit" the changes to master, i.e., the
Submit button will be there once all the reviewers (CI Bot and
you) have voted the changes up to the necessary level.
So the chain of events looks like this in the review:
![]()
After submitting, when I do a pull on the repo, my changes are
pulled and the repo is up-to-date (no longer one commit behind
master).
I believe a non-dilegent user could remove CI Bot from the
review to submit their changes even when those did not pass the
aggregation build but it appears to me that there really is no
good reason to allow direct push to master as a way to
completely bypass the CI Bot review.
Regards,
Ed

Hi
Sorry I must have missed something. My no doubt flawed
recollection was that we were assured (again) that direct push
would continue to be allowed.
I certainly use it every time since I see no other way to do it.
I push to Gerrit, check for build success, then Push to master.
Given that the bulk of failures are surely due to those updating
magic 'latest' contributions without any commit, why change the
rules for more diligent users?

Hi,
As discussed before, direct push to master for the SimRel
aggregation
build repository
(https://git.eclipse.org/r/simrel/org.eclipse.simrel.build)
has been
disabled. So, all future commits have to go through a Gerrit
review and
should get a +1 from the CI server before being merged.
The reasoning behind this is, that commits directly pushed to
master
caused build failures and delays in the past.
Please let me know, if you have any questions or concerns.
Regards,
Fred
