Pushing Changes for Review Using a Command Line (optional)

Here are the Git commands to add some files and make a commit with an associated message:

git add somefiles

git commit -am m "My first Awesome commit"

Note that this is just an example and the commit message should be more explicit than that.

Now that everything is ready, you can sign off your commit:

git review -s

if asked for a remote gerrit run

git config --global gitreview.remote origin

You may be prompted for your Linux Foundation account password. To verify that the commit worked, this command will show you the commit message and the sign off entry:

See the exact commit message format at Commit Messages

git commit -as s --amend


Info
titleAutomatic signature mode

You can automatically add the signature for all your commits by setting the git configuration:

git config --global format.signoff true

...

Then enter command git commit -as s --amend to show the commit message and the sign off entry, as shown below. Make sure the email address is the exactly the same as the email you used in the Linux Foundation account. If not, update the address.
