Description Niklas Laxström 2012-04-23 11:50:44 UTC
Another wasted 15 min:

git review -d 5410
Downloading refs/changes/10/5410/1 from gerrit into review/reedy/bug/36107
fatal: Couldn't find remote ref refs/changes/10/5410/1

Reason: wrong repository (combined with having unmigrated svn extension inside the git repo and git going up in the tree until it finds .git).
Comment 1 Chad H. 2012-05-07 11:04:00 UTC
We could possibly improve the error output here. If someone's looking to add it, you're looking for line ~550 in git-review.
