| 2 | ========================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | With this error message Gerrit rejects to push a commit that is |
| 5 | banned or that would merge in an ancestor that is banned. |
| 6 | |
| 7 | If a commit was identified as a bad commit (e.g. because it contains |
| 8 | coding that violates intellectual property) and because of this it |
| 9 | was removed from the central git repository it can be marked as |
| 10 | banned. Gerrit will then prevent that this commit ever enters the |
| 11 | repository again by rejecting every push of such a commit with the |
| 12 | error message "contains banned commit ...". |
| 13 | |
| 14 | If you have commits that you want to push that are based on a banned |
| 15 | 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 |
| 16 | them again. |
