Author workflow
You can apply one or more suggested fixes. When suggested fix is applied - it creates a change edit that you can modify in gerrit. More about editing mode.
FYI: Publishing a new patchset in gerrit will make gerrit change out of sync with your local git. You can checkout latest gerrit by using commands from download drop-down panel. More about download drop-down panel
