(technically not a git question, but i kind of need to know the
answer to this quickly as i'm writing some documentation and this is
something i have to explain.)
i cloned a repository (hyperledger fabric) which has a top-level
.gitreview file:
[gerrit]
host=gerrit.hyperledger.org
port=29418
project=fabric
and, as i read it, if i want to configure to use gerrit, an initial
invocation of "git review --setup" should do that for me, which it
appears to do, as it adds the following to .git/config:
[remote "gerrit"]
url = ssh://[email protected]:29418/fabric
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/gerrit/*
and copies over the commit-msg hook. so far, so good.
but from where does it figure out the username (rpjday) to use when
configuring that remote? i have no gerrit configuration in my
.gitconfig file. however, i have configured gerrit at the hyperledger
end to use my SSH key, which is associated with my linux foundation ID
(rpjday) that i registered to start using that repo.
is that where it gets the username from?
rday
