3With this error message Gerrit rejects to push a commit that is
4banned or that would merge in an ancestor that is banned.

6If a commit was identified as a bad commit (e.g. because it contains
7coding that violates intellectual property) and because of this it
8was removed from the central git repository it can be marked as
9banned. Gerrit will then prevent that this commit ever enters the
10repository again by rejecting every push of such a commit with the
11error message "contains banned commit ...".

13If you have commits that you want to push that are based on a banned
14commit 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
15them again.
