## Bugfix Releases
+### 2.15.15
+
+* Upgrade JGit to 4.11.8.201904181247-r.
+
+ This version of JGit includes a fix in the resolve merger to handle conflicts
+ in submodules. See [the upstream issue](https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=494551)
+ for details.
+
+* [Issue 10664](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=10664):
+Fix duplicate key detection in MySQL patch review database.
+
+* [Issue 10763](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=10763):
+Fix ACLs to allow regexes for tag and ref permissions.
+
+ The documentation states that reference names can also be described with
+ a regular expression by prefixing the reference name with `^`, but the UI
+ only showed the creation field when a non-regex name was used.
+
+* [Issue 10499](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=10499):
+Set default number of shards according to Elasticsearch version.
+
+ In Elasticsearch version 7.0 the default number of shards was reduced from
+ 5 to 1.
+
+ See the [Elasticsearch documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/getting-started-concepts.html#getting-started-shards-and-replicas)
+ for details.
+
+* Allow commit validation listeners to ignore the `skip-validation` push option.
+
+ Gerrit allows certain users to skip validation of new commits by passing
+ the `skip-validation` push option.
+
+ A new method `shouldValidateAllCommits` is added on the
+ `CommitValidationListener`, to allow plugin implemented validators to
+ override this option and always be invoked for new commits. The new
+ method has a default implementation that returns `false` meaning that
+ existing implementations don't need to be modified and will behave the
+ same as before.
+
+* Optimize commit and ref operation validation for non-ff push.
+
+ On a non-ff push all the commits were validated before the ref operation
+ was validated. On a push with many commits, validating all the commits is
+ wasteful in the case where the ref operation is rejected. The logic is
+ changed so that the ref operation validation is performed before the commit
+ validation.
+
+* Disallow change index task duplication.
+
+ It was possible for multiple index tasks to be queued for the same change.
+
+* Fix error message when JRE is not found when starting Gerrit.
+
+ The error message recommended to check for a JRE ">= 1.7", but Gerrit requires
+ Java 8 minimum.
+
+* Expose the `createProject` method of the `CreateProject` class to plugins.
+
+ This allows plugins to directly invoke the project creation, avoiding the
+ checks that are performed when invking via the `apply` method.
+
+* PolyGerrit UI fixes:
+
+ * Fix hiding the HTTP password screen.
+
+ It was possible for the HTTP password to be un-hidden using CSS.
+
+ * Add an extension point to allow adding links to the user header.
+
+
### 2.15.14
* Allow to disable log file rotation and compression.
