If a user without the Modify Account (or Administrator) capability attempts to use one of the following endpoints for a user other than 'self': - Get edit preferences - Set edit preferences - Set diff preferences - Set preferences an AuthException is raised with the message: "restricted to members of Modify Accounts". Aside from the fact that the capability name is wrong (it should not have the trailing 's'), this message is not particulaly user friendly. Change it to: "requires Modify Account capability" Note that there is some inconsistency in required capability for the "get" access to these preference endpoints. "Edit preferences" is the only one that allows "get" with the "Modify Account" capability. The "diff preferences" and the "preferences" endpoints only allow "get" for administrators. Fixing this is not within the scope of this change. Change-Id: Ifa3ccb6e0f43220605906bbda771334cc650972e
Gerrit Code Review
Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.
Objective
Gerrit makes reviews easier by showing changes in a side-by-side display, and allowing inline comments to be added by any reviewer.
Gerrit simplifies Git based project maintainership by permitting any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, rather than requiring all approved changes to be merged in by hand by the project maintainer.
