Re: [Gerrit] Getting "invalid author"

 

I had to register my git email with gerrit as well, no problems after.

If you do a "git commit --amend" will the hook add the change-id after you
edit the commit message? I ask because it didn't when doing an interactive
rebase. I did it this morning but I pasted the change-id in myself.
