It was fixed by adding the following permissions as default:

Forge Author Identity ==> set to 'Registered Users' instead of 'Project Owners'
Forge Committer Identity ==> 'Registered Users' instead of 'Project Owners'

can you check if it works for you now?

Eyal Edri December 4, 2016 at 1:43 PM

can you check if rebasing on someone else patch and pushing again requires the 'forget identity' permission or its a different one?

Former user December 4, 2016 at 1:39 PM

you can always ignore the patchset and push your version again. otherwise
you cant rebase your patch on it I think

So what you're saying is any 'registered user' should have 'forge author
identity' permission?
Isn't that a bit of a security issue?
