Juanita__Hi I have a query for Jeremy Stanley regarding Gerrit. We are unable to cherrypick from Master to the branch in Gerrit, for example, https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/docs/+/887739; when this is cherrypicked it created a new review, https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/docs/+/888647. Can you please advice?19:21
yoctozeptoJuanita__, elisa-aoki_: (CC fungi - he's Jeremy) it's the wrong channel, the support channel is #opendev; also, this is the expected behaviour - the cherry-picked change is properly marked as such - please explain what you are trying to achieve19:25
Juanita__The cherry pick created a new Change ID on the Stx 8.0 branch, see Gerrit review https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/docs/+/888647. There is no connection with the review created on master  https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/docs/+/887739, though it is the same content...19:27
yoctozeptowell, there is a link from 888647 to 88773919:28
yoctozeptoon the left panel with details19:28
yoctozepto"Cherry pick of"19:28
yoctozeptoyou could try cherry-picking again now that the original change is merged, so it could create a proper cherry-pick message also for git itself19:29
Juanita__Excellent, we see that...is this a new implementation, but we do not see this consistently on all Gerrit reviews...19:30
yoctozeptomaybe this will improve your view19:30
yoctozeptoplease try repeating the cherry-pick action now with the merged master patch19:31
fungiJuanita__: as yoctozepto said, this is the channel we hold scheduled meetings in, if you're looking for help you want the normal #opendev channel or the service-discuss@lists.opendev.org mailing list, but also if you want a different cherry-picking behavior than what the button in gerrit gives, use the `git cherry-pick` subcommand locally to prepare the commit consistent with your needs19:31
fungi(and read the documentation for git and gerrit for more information)19:31
Juanita__Ok thank you very much. It works now...we can see the cherry pick link on the left and right pane. 19:32
Juanita__Sorry about using this channel, we will use the #opendev going forward and join the #opendev-meeting on Tuesdays..19:33
