- Create a new SSH key to use with Wikimedia Gerrit:
- Run the following from your terminal, substituting your email address:
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_email@example.com"
- At the "
Enter a file in which to save the key
" prompt, you can press Enter to accept the default if this is your first SSH key. Otherwise, customize it to something like/Users/YOUR_NAME/.ssh/id_wikimedia_gerrit

Отримати код:
Clone the repository using the command in the repository browser (e.g. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core). You can find these on the list, or from the extension infobox on mediawiki.org. The most commonly cloned repositories are:
Для ядра MediaWiki: git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/core.git mediawiki
Або, для розширення: git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/<розширення>.git
MediaWiki skins: git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/skins/<skin-name>.git
Write your patch
Start your branch from the latest production branch:
mediawiki$ git checkout master mediawiki$ git pull mediawiki$ git checkout -b meaningful-branch-name
- NOTE: In some cases, the production branch may be called "production" or "main" and require a modified checkout command such as:
mediawiki$ git checkout production
mediawiki$ git checkout main
Now you can edit the code to make and test your changes. Once you are satisfied and the code is operational ready:
git commit --all
When working with Gerrit, do this only once per branch. To fix mistakes, usegit commit --amend
.git show
Review your patch to confirm what you are submitting to us. Press "q" to quit.git review
This pushes to Gerrit and creates a change request. If you receive an error and have previously installed the older "gerrit-tools" program, install "git-review" instead.
You are encouraged to invite one or two maintainers as reviewers on your change. After creating the change request, the git review
will have printed the URL for you change request. You can also find your changes through your Gerrit dashboard.
On the change page, under "Reviewers", click the "Add Reviewer" pencil button.
Write a reviewer name in the input box.
If you don't know who to invite for reviewing, check the maintainers list for the component you've modified, or ask on IRC (#mediawiki connect).
Update your patch
If a reviewer asks you to make changes, amend your commit as follows:
git review -d change_ID
e.g. 1234 in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/1234. This downloads and checks out the change request from Gerrit.- Edit the source files to make your changes.
git commit --all --amend
You can run this as many times as you like. When editing the commit message, leave the "Change-Id" line intact.git review
This updates your change request in Gerrit, with a new patch set version reflecting your change, and automatically notifies the subscribed reviewers.
