how to create new project through ssh command by user other than Admin

[Gouranga Panigrahi]

Hi,

I am working on a change: Adding Create branch ssh command to gerrit.

Now i m able to create a branch through ssh command while logged in as Admin user.

I need to create a branch by user other than admin and i guess some access settings need to be done in the ui to
grant the permission.

I think for create project also it will me similar kind of settings. If anyone can plase tell me the steps for achieving this for create project, so that
i can implement the same for create branch.

Thank
Gouranga

Please refer to the "ACCESS" section of the create-project command's
documentation [1].

Why?

Branches can be created by git push, as long as the user has the
necessary 'create ref' permission on the project.

git push origin HEAD:refs/heads/my-new-branch

Hi David,

This is for gerrit issue 1156.

OK. Having read that I still don't see how this use case differs enough
from creating the branch via git push to justify having a new SSH
command for it.

Current workflow:

1. Create the branch: git push origin master:refs/heads/new-branch
2. Push commits for review: git push origin HEAD:refs/for/new-branch

Workflow with SSH command:

1. Create the branch: ssh -p 29418 user@review gerrit create-branch [...]
2. Push commits for review: git push origin HEAD:refs/for/new-branch

In both cases the branch needs to be created before commits can be
pushed for review.

The only difference I can see is that with the ssh command the user is
limited to creating the branch, and cannot push changes into it at the
same time.
