Hi


In the old UI (old version 3.2.3) it was possible to hide commit that is not relevant anymore
Now I do not see such link anymore.

incoming review

After review is done – the author left change without actions – for some (unrelevant) reason

 I now do not want to see the change in the list of Incoming reviews


is this option was remove in the new UI ?

thanks


Guy

I don’t recall any option to hide commits from a change: can you share a screenshot?

I believe Guy is talking about the "Ignore" feature that was removed in 3.5 together with "stars" feature .
Tried to find more but the removal doesn't seem to be very documented.

It's removed in 3.5 (FWICT) so you'd need a screenshot v3.(2|3|4) vs 3.5.

$ docker run -ti -p 80:8080 -h localhost gerritcodereview/gerrit:3.4.5

I could run locally, but I have no idea of an “ignore commits” feature or button, so I won’t know where to look :-(
Can you run the above and take the screenshot?

Luca.

Sorry!
It's a change-action so in the action drop-down (top right) on the change-screen.
I checked 3.4 but it wasn't present there, must have been removed earlier.

This is my screenshot of the v3.2.14: I don’t see any “ignore commits” change action on the change-screen:

@Guy do you have any screenshot to share with the “ignore commits” feature that was removed?

The change action was called just "Ignore".

Here is the change that removed it (for 3.6 I think): 321608: Completely remove the "Ignore" feature from Gerrit's web app | https://gerrit-review.git.corp.google.com/c/gerrit/+/321608

From the change message:
"If you want to ignore a change, then you can remove yourself from the
attention set or the list of reviewers/ccs. That makes it also clearer
to your collaborators that you don't want to participate."

Thanks, Ben, for the pointer, I can see that it appears if you are the reviewer of a change.

Yeah, it looks like it was misleading anyway: after having hit “ignore” I am still in the list of reviewers and in the attention-set.
However, the change could have been excluded by adding the predicated "-is:ignored” to the change query.

Honestly, I’ve never used it and it did not impact my dashboard either.
None of our setups used it also, and nobody on GerritHub.io ever complained: we have tens of thousands of active users on it !

This is one of the things that were overlapping with the attention-set feature and therefore make sense to remove for the consistency of the product.
I am going to update the Gerrit v3.5 release notes to list this into the “Breaking Changes” section.

@Guy would the work for you?

Luca.

First of all, thank all for this Investigation,
this request comes from one of our developers 
I am going to update the Gerrit v3.5 release notes to list this into the “Breaking Changes” section.   - what do you mean - is this feature will be added in the future Gerrit version?   or just as update news that this option was remove ?

The change was actually on Gerrit v3.6, see it included in the release notes at [1].

 or just as update news that this option was remove ? 

Is an update on the release notes: the feature has been already removed a long ago but NOT properly mentioned, until now.
Thanks again for pointing this out and allowing us to identify the gap in the notes.

Luca.
