Remove the useIndex option in SSH commands change id parsing The Change I34dbf53524 introduced a specific flag for parsing the change id in SSH commands differently for some use-cases where there is a requirement of NOT using a Lucene index lookup. When the flag was introduced in v2.13, Gerrit had a radically different architecture: - The Git repository contained only the code - All review metadata was stored in ReviewDb - The primary key for looking up changes was the change number which did not require any Lucene lookups At that time in v2.13, the introduction of the useIndex option allowed to fix a specific SSH command for reindexing a change in case it was missed during the change creation of patch-set upload. See Issue 313935024 for more details on how a Gerrit change may end up with a stale or completely absent indexing entry. Starting from v2.15 and then up to v3.0, the removal of ReviewDb code-base was implemented without paying too much attention on the consequences on the useIndex flag which was ported "syntatically" to the newer releases but lost completely its effectiveness. Also, the SSH commands did not have historically enough test coverage, exposing the risks of a regression. On the other side, the change finder is now clever enough to use the index or the underlying repository depending on the format of the change id, which makes a lot more sense than a static decision based on the useIndex flag. Also remove the unneeded reload of the change notes found and loaded by the changeFinder, which was inadvertently added as part of Change Idaeeb7d82. TODO: Remove the flag completely after this change is merged to master. The flag is kept unused in stable versions for not invalidating the public signature of the methods, which may be used by other parts of Gerrit or other plugins. Bug: Issue 325821304 Release-Notes: Fix change id parsing in SSH commands Change-Id: Iee2057f8978a40d37804c9198df0c1c70fdcb9eb
Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.
Gerrit makes reviews easier by showing changes in a side-by-side display, and allowing inline comments to be added by any reviewer.
Gerrit simplifies Git based project maintainership by permitting any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, rather than requiring all approved changes to be merged in by hand by the project maintainer.
For information about how to install and use Gerrit, refer to the documentation.
Our canonical Git repository is located on googlesource.com. There is a mirror of the repository on Github.
