Hello Gerrit Experts,

I'm trying to push All Projects back into the repo after adding a LFS file config and it fails with the following errors.

remote: ERROR: commit 3e6e275: email address test is not registered in your account, and you lack 'forge author' permission.

Steps followed:

git clone "ssh://test@ec2-18-224-32-196.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com:29418/All-Projects"
git fetch origin refs/meta/config
git checkout FETCH_HEAD
vi lfs.config
[lfs "^.*"]
    enabled = true
    maxObjectSize = 50m
git add .
git comit -m "nw file"

[gerrit@ip-172-31-10-71 All-Projects]$ git push origin HEAD:refs/meta/config

I have added the user test and is the defalt user and the e-mail address is alo registered.

I don't see an option to register this user with this address.

Hi Test user AWS (I guess you don’t want disclose your name?),

Answers inline.

You need to have the “forge author” permission to push commits authored by other people.

See the documentation at:

I have added the user test and is the defalt user and the e-mail address is alo registered.

I don't see an option to register this user with this address.

Thank you
