I was asked to push a commit for review to the LO Gerrit instance [1].
The patch is from a colleague, who is denoted as the commit author. No
Gerrit complains, that I am not the author, and my colleagues email address
is not registered to *my* Gerrit account.
This is intentional.
Could you please change that, and disable that limitation? I don’t see any
reason for it.
It is to prevent people from impersonating somebody else.
Think about someone trying your email to introduce a backdoor ...
as well as reducing mistakes (when you're using different email
addresses, and didn't configure your email...
At least the committer address should also be looked at. Or some kind of
Signed-off-by procedure.
That is already in place, as mentioned by Jan.
