Hey there,
I wanted to upload again a new patch version for my changes. Therefore I pulled like the first time the last patch version via „git pull …”, which I copied from the Gerrit Server. Everything works fine, except the problem, that my COMMIT_EDITMSG changes
completely in comparison to the message file of the upload.
The content now looks like that:
Change-Id: I82322f200e0c247bd8e2b36a2f15344055d0acc8
# Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting
# with '#' will be ignored, and an empty message aborts the commit.
# On branch master
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 2 commits.
# (use "git push" to publish your local commits)
I did exactly the same, like my first new patch upload. (git pull -> making my changes -> git commit --amend -> git review –f)
Back then my COMMIT_EDITMSG didn’t change and the upload worked, so I am right now confused, why the entire content of the file has changed? If I would upload my changes with that file, a completely
new change will be created due to the new ChangeID, won’t it?
Regards
