Add and Manage Gerrit Organizations

Before you can add or manage Gerrit organizations and repositories, you must connect or add Gerrit organizations while setting up IT services. However, you can also add Gerrit organization in the Gerrit pane of Tools tab.

• ​Add Gerrit Organization​

• ​Disassociate Gerrit Organization​

After you successfully add Git organizations, you can:

• ​View Connection Status of Git Organization and Repositories​

• ​Enforce or Remove CLA Mechanism for Gerrit Repositories​

Add Gerrit Organization

Note:

• If you have already added a Gerrit instance during the EasyCLA on-boarding process, skip this procedure unless you want to add more Gerrit instances.

• After you add a Gerrit organization, all of its repositories are EasyCLA-enabled by default.

1. Click the + sign at the top right of Add Gerrit Organization.
