 * Pull... changes from remote repository. Keep AutoLoad Putty Key checked. You may check Launch Rebase after Fetch to start rebase or start it manually.

 * Make your changes on your local repository and test it.
 * Commit you changeset to the local repository by Git Commit -> &lt;your local branch name> command; this command is part of the windows context menu not the TortoiseGit context submenu.
 * Add a descriptive commit message into the message field for your commit. Refer Gerrit/Commit message guidelines.
 * Click View Patch>> at the bottom of the dialog window to see the patch and verify the changes.

 * Remote: type  for the destination. You may easily add a gerrit topic for your changeset by appending it separated by "%topic=", e.g..
 * Press to submit your patch.

Download a patch for review
You may download a patch form another developers to your local repository to review it by following steps:


 * First create a new local branch
 * Choose Fetch.... A new dialog window will be opened.
 * Select Arbitrary URL.
 * Enter the repository URL there, e.g.

Git Clone hangs
If Git Clone... hangs after "Resolving deltas" hits 100% and you are using PuTTY: Open up PuTTY, load Default Settings, and set "Chokes on PuTTY's SSH-2 'winadj' requests" to "On" under Connection->SSH->Bugs. Then select Session, select Default Settings, and Save.
