Just do as the message says:

> remote: ERROR: missing Change-Id in commit message footer

gerrit  uses the  Change-Id  string in the  commit message to track a
change. Apparently you didn't update the git hooks  when  creating the
 commit, so  there is no line "Change-Id: ..." in the commit-message.

gerrit provides  you  with a sample, that you could  add to  your
commit with commit --amend or similar.

alternatively use the ./g command, that  also installs the git-hooks...
