Support Gerrit's cherry-pick feature in V8 |
|
Issue descriptionGerrit nowadays support a cherry-pick feature which also works with V8. One only has to know: - which branch exactly to merge to (e.g. refs/branch-heads/6.3) - What CQ flags to add (e.g. NOTRY=true) - Mention the cherry-picked hash somewhere in the commit message Essentially offer the same comfort as tools/release/merge_to_branch.py but online via Gerrit.

Is this a feature request or do you just want this process to be documented somewhere?

I guess the best solution determined by some factors (maintenance, probability of user error, ...).

Not sure I understand your answer. Is this bug about an existing feature that needs to be documented or about a feature that still does not exist and needs to be implemented?

As far as I understand, the basic feature is there but it's inconvenient to use at the moment (requires manually adding stuff into the commit message). (When I just tried I got some cryptic error message that quickly disappeared again, so there may or may not be another problem.) In any case, being able to do a merge with just a few clicks in gerrit would be much appreciated. |
