Hello Osmocom,
The Gerrit instructions page in the OsmoCNI wiki says:
If you would like to push private branches to the
Gerrit repository,
you also need to be added to the "known users" group.
Please send a short requesting email to openbsc(a)lists.osmocom.org.
I am requesting to be added to the just-described "known users" group
so I can push private branches to osmo-bts repository. My current
reason for desiring such ability is that I am working on a large-ish
feature in OS#5975, and I anticipate needing to do a lot of work
before my patch series will reach mergeable quality. As I understand
it, private branches in Osmocom git repositories of the form
$developer_name/$feature_name exist precisely for feature development
scenario just like the one I find myself in currently, hence I request
the necessary permissions, same as other Osmocom developers.
With devotion to GSM Forever,
(Hasta la Victoria, Siempre,)

I've added falcon(a)freecalypso.org to 'known users' on gerrit.

Exactly.
While you mention it.. I myself made the mistake at first:
When creating a branch, make sure you always use 'your_name/something',
never just a branch 'your_name'. Once 'your_name' is a branch,
you can't have branches named 'your_name/foo' anymore,
and that situation may replicate to all our git repositories...

well, i tend a more balanced approach to GSM =)

Hi Neels,
I've added falcon(a)freecalypso.org to 'known
users' on gerrit.
Thanks! Now I just need to make sure I don't mess it up:
While you mention it.. I myself made the mistake at
first:

So what exact naming should I use for my branches then: should it be
falcon/xxx or falconia/xxx? My username in Osmocom Redmine and Gerrit
is falconia, but my email address begins with falcon, and your wording
above seems to indicate that the 'known users' permission is based on
the email address. Please clarify - it appears that I need to get the
naming exactly right the first time, so I won't push anything until I
get an explicit confirmation of which way is right.

Just pick any prefix that you like, falcon or falconia or fred for that matter,
and stick to that. Then create any branches fred/xxx.
It's pretty straightforward, I'm sure you'll find it easy =)
In doubt, see https://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/Gerrit

Wow, OK - I didn't realize it was so open to people just grabbing
whatever name, I thought the namespace of which private branches
belong to which account was enforced somewhere, which is why I asked.
I shall use falconia/xxx for my published private branches. The first
will probably be a branch in osmo-bts implementing an extended RTP
transport format of my own invention for FR & EFR codecs - I will
start working on it some time after my currently outstanding intended-
for-master patches get resolved one way or another, and after I do
some more work on the themwi-system-sw side of the interface.
