= missing Change-Id in commit message footer
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
With this error message Gerrit rejects to push a commit to a project
 | 
						|
which is configured to always require a Change-Id in the commit
 | 
						|
message if the commit message of the pushed commit does not contain
 | 
						|
a Change-Id in the footer (the last paragraph).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This error may happen for different reasons:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
. missing Change-Id in the commit message
 | 
						|
. Change-Id is contained in the commit message but not in the last
 | 
						|
  paragraph
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You can see the commit messages for existing commits in the history
 | 
						|
by doing a link:http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-log.html[git log].
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To avoid this error you should use the link:cmd-hook-commit-msg.html[commit hook] or EGit to
 | 
						|
automatically create and insert a unique Change-Id into the commit
 | 
						|
message on every commit.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
== Missing Change-Id in the commit message
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If the commit message of a commit that you want to push does not
 | 
						|
contain a Change-Id you have to update its commit message and insert
 | 
						|
a Change-Id.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you want to upload a new change to Gerrit make sure that you have
 | 
						|
configured your environment so that a unique Change-Id is
 | 
						|
automatically created and inserted on every commit as explained
 | 
						|
above. Now you can rewrite the commits for which the Change-Ids are
 | 
						|
missing and the Change-Ids will be automatically created and inserted
 | 
						|
into the commit messages. This is explained link:error-push-fails-due-to-commit-message.html#commit_hook[here].
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you want to update an existing change in Gerrit by uploading a new
 | 
						|
patch set you should copy its Change-Id from the Gerrit Web UI and
 | 
						|
insert it into the commit message. How to update the commit message
 | 
						|
is explained link:error-push-fails-due-to-commit-message.html[here].
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
== Change-Id is contained in the commit message but not in the last paragraph
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To be picked up by Gerrit, a Change-Id must be in the last paragraph
 | 
						|
of a commit message, for details, see link:user-changeid.html[Change-Id Lines].
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If the Change-Id is contained in the commit message but not in its
 | 
						|
last paragraph you have to update the commit message and move the
 | 
						|
Change-Id into the last paragraph. How to update the commit message
 | 
						|
is explained link:error-push-fails-due-to-commit-message.html[here].
