NAME

gerrit copy-approvals - Copy all inferred approvals labels to the latest patch-set.

SYNOPSIS

ssh -p <port> <host> gerrit copy-approvals
  [--verbose | -v]
  [PROJECT]…​

DESCRIPTION

Gerrit has historically computed votes using an inference algorithm that was cumulating them from all the patch-sets. That was not efficient since it had to take into account copied votes from very old patchsets. E.g, votes sometimes need to be copied from ps1 to ps10.

Gerrit copy the approvals from the inferred votes to the latest patch-sets once a change receives a new label update.

The copy-approval command scans all the changes of a project and looks for all votes that have not been copied yet, calculate the inferred score and apply that as copied label to the latest patch-set.

Note
The label copied as part of this process receives the grant date of the timestamp of the copy-approval command execution, not the one associated with the inferred vote.
