Description

The 'repo upload' command is used to send changes to the Gerrit Code Review system. It searches for topic branches in local projects that have not yet been published for review. If multiple topic branches are found, 'repo upload' opens an editor to allow the user to select which branches to upload.

'repo upload' searches for uploadable changes in all projects listed at the command line. Projects can be specified either by name, or by a relative or absolute path to the project's local directory. If no projects are specified, 'repo upload' will search for uploadable changes in all projects listed in the manifest.

If the --reviewers or --cc options are passed, those emails are added to the respective list of users, and emails are sent to any new users. Users passed as --reviewers must already be registered with the code review system, or the upload will fail.

Configuration

review.URL.autoupload:

To disable the "Upload ... (y/N)?" prompt, you can set a per-project or global Git configuration option. If review.URL.autoupload is set to "true" then repo will assume you always answer "y" at the prompt, and will not prompt you further. If it is set to "false" then repo will assume you always answer "n", and will abort.

review.URL.autoreviewer:

To automatically append a user or mailing list to reviews, you can set a per-project or global Git option to do so.

review.URL.autocopy:

To automatically copy a user or mailing list to all uploaded reviews, you can set a per-project or global Git option to do so. Specifically, review.URL.autocopy can be set to a comma separated list of reviewers who you always want copied on all uploads with a non-empty --re argument.

review.URL.username:

Override the username used to connect to Gerrit Code Review. By default the local part of the email address is used.

The URL must match the review URL listed in the manifest XML file, or in the .git/config within the project. For example:

[remote "origin"]
url = git://git.example.com/project.git review = http://review.example.com/
[review "http://review.example.com/"]
autoupload = true autocopy = johndoe@company.com,my-team-alias@company.com

review.URL.uploadtopic:

To add a topic branch whenever uploading a commit, you can set a per-project or global Git option to do so. If review.URL.uploadtopic is set to "true" then repo will assume you always want the equivalent of the -t option to the repo command. If unset or set to "false" then repo will make use of only the command line option.

review.URL.uploadhashtags:

To add hashtags whenever uploading a commit, you can set a per-project or global Git option to do so. The value of review.URL.uploadhashtags will be used as comma delimited hashtags like the --hashtag option.

review.URL.uploadlabels:

To add labels whenever uploading a commit, you can set a per-project or global Git option to do so. The value of review.URL.uploadlabels will be used as comma delimited labels like the --label option.

review.URL.uploadnotify:

Control e-mail notifications when uploading. https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/user-upload.html#notify
