Howto push to Gerrit?

[dapc11]

As the title says, how does one accomplish a push to Gerrit? A push to a "regular" repo, e.g. Github-based, would be something like:
neogit -> P(ush) -> p(ushRemote)

Git cmdline equivalent:
git push

And that's all to it. But with Gerrit I'm struggling to push, as that looks a bit different to the regular push:
git push origin HEAD:refs/for/<branch>

When using Magit I ended up writing my own transient prefix:
(defun magit-push-to-gerrit () (interactive) (magit-git-command "push origin HEAD:refs/for/master" (magit-toplevel)))

Is there a way to do this in Neogit?

Thanks in advance.

Hmm. I think you could do something like:

local original_fn = require("neogit.lib.git.push").push_interactive

local wrapper_fn = function(remote, branch, args)
  original_fn(remote, "HEAD:refs/for/" .. branch, args)
end

require("neogit.lib.git.push").push_interactive = wrapper_fn

If that needs to be changed on a per-project basis, you could consider setting an ENV variable with something like direnv for the project and reading that in the wrapper function.

Thanks for the quick answer. Just a follow-up question.
Perhaps it's just my lack of knowledge. But this makes all pushes go towards HEAD:refs/for/" .. branch right?

Is there a way to add an additional target to the interactive Push. Similar to e elsewhere, but instead perhaps: g gerrit. Which makes it Neogit -> P -> g

If you make a fork, sure. Add a line in lua/neogit/popups/push/init.lua for a new action, and action.lua in that folder for the function. (or just do it inline, doesn't matter).

But there's no built-in mechanism to do custom popup commands (at this time).

If you have a repo that exclusively uses gerrit, you could do something like vim.loop.os_getenv("USE_GERRIT") to determine if you should modify the branch argument being passed or not.

Thanks for the pointer @CKolkey! The fork option is fine for me. Are there plans for custom popup commands?

[CKolkey]

Not really.. But I'd accept a PR. I think you'd have to make an interface in the config like:

{
  NeogitPushPopup = {
    { key = "g", name = "gerrit", action = function(popup) ... end }
  }
}

Then apply that somehow in the builder.
