I recently added a new e-Mail address to Gerrit. Today, I created a patch, did git review -R which worked as expected and then needed to amend the patch. I was using the same machine but during uploading the amended patchset, I got remote: ERROR: In commit b9465068157b92ce3722cf15ab2effa6812b21a3 remote: ERROR: committer email address <myfullname>@hotmail.com remote: ERROR: does not match your user account. remote: ERROR: remote: ERROR: The following addresses are currently registered: remote: ERROR: <lastname>@wikipedia.de remote: ERROR: remote: ERROR: To register an email address, please visit: remote: ERROR: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/settings/contact I haven't removed the first e-Mail address from Gerrit but it wasn't there anymore and I had to re-confirm that I own <myfullname>@hotmail.com
I see that your @wikipedia.de address is now twice in the database for your user. Your @hotmal.com address is in the database once for your user. As gerrit does not log email changes, and gerrit logs of the last few days do not show related errors/warnings I cannot reconstruct what happened, or how gerrit came in this state. I tried adding/removing email addresses for my user, and it worked without problems. Since (after having to reconfirm your email address) you seem to be able to use gerrit again with the @hotmail.com address, and I cannot reproduce, I'll resolve worksforme.
(In reply to christian from comment #1) Should I be concerned that my account was possibly hijacked? Today, I just got a new error (missed installing the commit message hook before ``git review -R`` but it was automatically done so in previous commits) Problems encountered installing commit-msg hook The following command failed with exit code 1 "scp -P 29418 rillke@gerrit.wikimedia.org:hooks/commit-msg .git/hooks/commit-msg" ----------------------- hash mismatch key_verify failed for server_host_key -----------------------
(In reply to Rainer Rillke @commons.wikimedia from comment #2) > hash mismatch > key_verify failed for server_host_key this kind of error happens temporarily from time to time. Retrying should reliably solve the kind of error. > (In reply to christian from comment #1) > Should I be concerned that my account was possibly hijacked? The email thing is strange. But I'd write that off as Gerrit hiccup. The "hash mismatch" happens from time to time. So if there are no further signs of hijacking, I would not be concerned too much.
