importance of scp
For those (windows users?) having trouble exec'ing, it works nicely to run the suggested  scp command (please note that the shell used by git in windows puts stray characters at the end of lines, so IGNORE "←[K" in the following): mylocaldir>git review -R Enter passphrase for key '/c/Users/myusername/.ssh/id_rsa': Enter passphrase for key '/c/Users/myusername/.ssh/id_rsa': remote: Processing changes: refs: 1, done   ←[K remote: ERROR: missing Change-Id in commit message footer←[K remote: Suggestion for commit message:←[K remote: remote: Change-Id: I8155f3c92111ae8228e7ac1970225ddef73a88bc←[K remote: remote: Hint: To automatically insert Change-Id, install the hook:←[K remote:  scp -p -P 29418 myusername@gerrit.wikimedia.org:hooks/commit-msg .git/hooks/←[K

In other words, run the suggested "scp" command and your life will be more pleasant/ --Hypergrove (talk) 18:06, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
