I’m trying to get git-review working.  I think I’ve done everything necessary but this is what I get:

C:\Development\wireshark>git review

Problem running 'git remote update origin'

Fetching origin

fatal: unable to access 'https://code.wireshark.org/review/wireshark/': Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to code.wireshark.org:443

error: Could not fetch origin

 

I’m not sure why I’m not using ssh as I have set this up and the recommended test works fine.

 

I got to similar position a couple of years ago and never got it working.  I’m obviously doing something wrong as this is a completely fresh install of all involved packages.

 

I’m using:

 

• git version 2.11.0.windows.3
• git-review version 1.25.0
• Python 3.6.0

 

I’ve spent about 6 hours on this so far – just to push a stupid two line patch.  Any advice gratefully accepted.

 

Thanks and regards…Paul

 

Could be several things, try adding a "-v" to git-review for more verbose output

Is it because you have checked out out a tag and not the master-2.2 branch?  What does "git branch" show?

Have you checked your git\ssh connection to Gerrit? see https://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/SubmittingPatches/GitForWindows, but note you'll need to supply the path to the git version of ssh, i.e. (from PowerShell)

  & "C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\ssh.exe" -p 29418 yourgerritusername@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Pro-tip: On Windows use Powershell (although it's now available everywhere) and PoshGit (cinst -y poshgit in chocolatey) which adds some nice support for git to the shell.
