|  | = too many commits | 
|  |  | 
|  | This error occurs when a push directly to a branch | 
|  | link:user-upload.html#bypass_review[bypassing review] contains more commits than | 
|  | the server is able to validate in a single batch. | 
|  |  | 
|  | The recommended way to avoid this message is to use the | 
|  | link:user-upload.html#skip_validation[`skip-validation` push option]. Depending | 
|  | on the number of commits, it may also be feasible to split the push into smaller | 
|  | batches. | 
|  |  | 
|  | The actual limit is controlled by a | 
|  | link:config-gerrit.html#receive.maxBatchCommits[server config option]. |
