Author workflow

You can apply one or more suggested edits. When a suggested edit is applied it creates a change edit that you can further modify in Gerrit. You can read more about all the features of change edit mode.

FYI: Publishing a new patchset in Gerrit will make your Gerrit change out of sync with your local git commit. You can checkout the latest Gerrit patchset by using the commands from the download drop-down panel.

Alternatively, you can use the copy to clipboard button to copy a suggested edit to your clipboard and then you can paste it into your editor.
