Unable to push changes to Gerrit

[radman0x]

Hi,

Recently I had a problem with Qt and in the process of fixing it realised that a source change was required. I want to commit these changes to the Qt project and I am attempting to follow the code review submission process. I am having a technical issue where git refuses to push my changes to Gerrit.
I have been following "this tutorial":http://qt-project.org/wiki/Gerrit-Introduction and I am stuck at the point where it recommends the line:
git push ssh://<username>@codereview.qt-project.org:29418/qt/qtbase HEAD:refs/for/master

When I try that I get the following back:
@git push ssh://radman0x@codereview.qt-project.org:29418/qt/qtbase HEAD:refs/for/master
Counting objects: 13, done.
Delta compression using up to 6 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (7/7), done.

! [remote rejected] HEAD -> refs/for/master (branch master not found)
error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://radman0x@codereview.qt-project.org:29418/qt/qtbase'@

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

It looks like the tutorial is outdated. The "master" branch was removed at the start of Qt 5. Here is the new branching scheme: http://qt-project.org/wiki/Branch-Guidelines

If it's a small bugfix, use HEAD:refs/for/stable
It it's a destabilising fix, or a new feature, use HEAD:refs/for/dev

EDIT: I've also updated that tutorial. Thanks for pointing it out.
