Hello everyone,

From Gerrit doc:

The Owner category controls which groups can modify the project’s configuration. Users who are members of an owner group can:

  • Change the project description

  • Create/delete a branch through the web UI (not SSH)

  • Grant/revoke any access rights, including Owner

I would like to grant "create/delete branch through UI" permission for some group but not grant "edit access" permission for it. Is it possible?

Thanks a lot,

Hi Marcelo!

 

You don't need to assign "Owner" to be able to create new branches, the "Create reference" permission should be sufficient.

Hi Fredrik,

Worked perfectly! I thought the "Create Reference" permission did not work for UI only for ssh.

Thanks a lot,
