My team uses both gerrit and gitlab and this sometimes causes issues when people are working on both gerrit and gitlab at same time.
While working on gerrit instead of
git push origin HEAD:refs/for/master we wrongly issue git push.
So instead of creating a changeset, the code gets automatically pushed to Remote branch.
How can we block all direct pushes to a branch in gerrit?
Go to:
Gerrit > All-Projects project > Access
Look at the "Push" permission at the "refs/heads/*" category. Probably your team has an "ALLOW" in this permission. Edit the project permissions to remove it or to add a "BLOCK" specific for your team.
there is an access category - push
so this can be disabled for a group under the project admin site. more info can be found here

I cannot find an option to delete a PR on BitBucket.
Am I overlooking something or it's really not possible?
You can decline a pull request which has the same result -- stopping / removing the PR.
As per the link jonrsharpe mentioned, to the right of the merge button there are 3 dots. Under that menu you should have a delete option if you have permission to delete.
This is available only for BitBucket Server, not on BitBucket.org.
In BitBucket.org there is no option to delete the PR.
For Bitbucket Cloud, there are no way to do this. One way of getting by is to have a 'dev/junk' branch, used for declined or useless pull requests.
Then just edit the existing request to go into this branch and merge.
Data is still there, in case you need it some day, or if it's sensitive info you can remove the whole branch. If its already declined before, well, nothing can be done then other than recreating that repo
See https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BCLOUD-8089 for the update on this feature request and vote on it!
I wanted to delete a pull request of a branch that had already been merged and deleted. Even though I am an admin of my project, I cannot see any "delete" options. For me what worked was to recreate the deleted branch from the main branch and push it. E.g.
git checkout master
git checkout -b [deleted branch name]
git push -u origin [deleted branch name]
Then I opened Bitbucket and the branch showed up as "merged" and disappeared from the PRs list.
You cannot delete the PR in bitbucket.org .
Using Decline option will do exactly what you want - the PR won't be visible in the tab Pull requests (you need to sort PR by Decline to see it) but on tab Branches you will see that in column Pull request you have removed your problematic PR.
PS you cannot undo Decline of PR, so take care
We use Gerrit 2.5-rc1) ACLs to manage access to our git projects & branches. We try to keep the rules simple for developer groups; refs/heads/* allow Push, Create Reference, Push Merge Commit.
There is a need to mark a specific branch, call it foo, as read only. I have tried adding a new rule for refs/heads/foo/*, allowing READ, but DENYing Push, Push Merge Commit, etc. (both with and without "Exclusive" tickbox ticked). In any case, developers are still permitted to push to that branch.
Any idea how to do this without writing server hooks, etc?
For your Gerrit version I think the following set should do the trick:
refs/heads/* ALLOW
refs/heads/foo/* BLOCK
We have a setup with Bitbucket GIT linked to JIRA issue tracker. It is possible to add special comments to GIT commit messages to update JIRA issues automatically.
However, is it possible to put the link to the Pull Request, when it is created, to the corresponding JIRA issue? JIRA issue knows the name of the branch, so it should also have information on the pull requests.
If you reference your issue keys in your commit messages, branches and pull requests then this information will automatically appear in your issue's development panel.
This requires that you have an application link configured between JIRA and Bitbucket.
This is how it should look:
More info is available on the Development Information documentation page.
I'm looking for a way to automatically add +2 permissions for certain refs for a lot of projects in Gerrit and unfortunately it seems there are no API calls to modify access rights, only to read them. Do you have any idea how to modify refs permissions for a big amount of projects?
I'm using Gerrit 2.9.
Thanks.
One possibility would be to create a batch script to modify the project.config for those projects and commit them back to gerrit.
This is how you can checkout the project.config for the All-Projects, it works the same for other projects: http://blog.bruin.sg/2013/04/how-to-edit-the-project-config-for-all-projects-in-gerrit/
Simply put:
Create list of project you want to change
Iterate over the lest
Checkout the refs/meta/config ref
Use script to modify project.config
Commit and push back to the server
More information about the project.config: http://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/config-project-config.html
I have two different bitbucket accounts set up. One is for work projects and one is for personal use. In BitBucket I have set up a repository in each of the accounts for different projects.
In SourceTree I have a few existing personal projects that are syncing up to my personal repository on SourceTree. In the left hand panel I can see my "Develop" branch for one of those personal projects and on the remote in BitBucket I can see the remote repo.
In SourceTree I don't see an obvious way to keep my two accounts separate. For example, I have added the work repo in SourceTree but when I try to commit an initial version of a work project it only gives me the option to commit my personal project branch.
How can I now add my work repo locally and sync only those work projects into repos on that work BitBucket account?
For SourceTree 2.0.2+ on Mac only with GitHub accounts:
Click from menu File-> New/Clone
In the dialog click settings icon.
In the resulting popup menu click Settings
It brings a dialog with listing user accounts. Add your additional account to the list.
Close the dialog.
Click remote button (next to local) on the tool in image shown below.
All your added accounts will be listed and their respective repositories with button to clone.
Hope this helps.
NOW on Windows, you do it in the Clone/Add/Create Repository dialog:
Click the "Hosted Repositories" button (internet icon)
Click "Edit Accounts"
Click "Add"
Well I have done this way:
Click on Settings
Click on Advance tab
Enter your Full name and Email address (Email should be match with your Bitbucket account)
Click on OK
Click on Close (To close current window)
Restart again
Note: You must have added account in Source tree. (Open Source tree -> Click on Setting icon < Right Top corner> -> Click Settings -> Add your Account -> Set as Default account)
Hope this would help you.
In Windows, you can do it by following steps:
Click on settings button ( right top corner). It will open dialog box.
Click on Advanced tab.
Uncheck the "Use global user settings".
Now you can enter username and email id for corresponding repository.
Click on OK to save changes.
If I understand your question correctly, you still need to do a little bit more set of your bitBucket accounts.
You can also test the BitBucket server to see which account you are logging in with.
ssh -v git#bitbucket.org
This link help me, follow these instructions here and you should be successful.
The key part you need is in you .git/config.
You'll need separate entries for each.
Use different SSH keys for different accounts on the same Git hosting
In Windows you may have more than one account (you can have even GitHub and BitBucket side by side). For example, assuming the account you have now in SourceTree is with BitBucket and you want to add your GitHub account to it as well, do the following:
From menu, choose File->New/Clone
In the Source Path/URL put the repository url for a repository you have on github
Wait for a few seconds and it asks you for username/password. (first, buttons might be disabled for example for entering your password. So wait for a few seconds first)
Add the new username and passowrd on github.
Now if you like you can cancel the clone.
For BitBucket account/repos, you can include the username you want to use as part of the git URL. SourceTree will then ask for the password for that username.
https://username#bitbucket.org/account/repo
If you've already cloned a repository with ssh on the Mac version, and you want to change the account for it, you can do this by changing the host name of the remote.
If you've let SourceTree modify your ˜/.ssh/config , then it will have added some entries starting with:
# --- Sourcetree Generated ---
Host <account name>-<service name>
...
Choose the <account name>-<service name> combination that you want to use and modify the path of your repository (in Remote Settings). Your new path will be something like the following format:
git#<account name>-<service name>:<account name>/<repository name>.git
(Actually, you can use this solution for working copies not cloned by SourceTree too.)
on windows the tool has a bug
no matter what I've tried from within the tool it was always using a previews git account which was cached somewhere...
so I searched all files where sourcetree was installed and I found a file C:\Users\WIDNOWS_USER\AppData\Local\Atlassian\SourceTree\userhosts
there I had cached the old git user/account name and it was driving me nuts in the app.
I updated this file, deleted the old account name and added the new one, restarted the tool and it started to work fine.
there's also a file
C:\Users\WIDNOWS_USER\AppData\Local\Atlassian\SourceTree\passwd
check that one too and if your cached account with passwd is there too clean it out, do not add here anything, the app will do it first time when you enter your password for the new acccount
