Merging Gerrit identities
Basically, following https://ovirt-infra-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/General/Gerrit_account_merge/index.html.
If for some reason, you don't have access to refs/meta/external-ids
, you can still do it on the server directly as long as you ensure that you restore the permbits for gerrit:gerrit
on the git storage.
You can extract a worktree git worktree add /tmp/external-ids refs/meta/external-ids
, generate a commit that fixes things and you can complete by git update-ref refs/meta/external-ids $commit_sha1
.
Note:
- that CLs under dashboard of the previous account will just disappear and won't go to the new account.
- HTTP passwords are generated under the old username (?)
