| contains banned commit ... |
| ========================== |
| |
| With this error message Gerrit rejects to push a commit that is |
| banned or that would merge in an ancestor that is banned. |
| |
| If a commit was identified as a bad commit (e.g. because it contains |
| coding that violates intellectual property) and because of this it |
| was removed from the central git repository it can be marked as |
| banned. Gerrit will then prevent that this commit ever enters the |
| repository again by rejecting every push of such a commit with the |
| error message "contains banned commit ...". |
| |
| If you have commits that you want to push that are based on a banned |
| commit you may want to link:http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-cherry-pick.html[cherry-pick] them onto a clean base and push |
| them again. |
