Description Alexander Kurtakov CLA 2021-01-20 06:41:52 EST
If you go to https://git.eclipse.org/r/q/project:pde%252Feclipse.pde.ui+status:open you'll see one gerrit with no subject. Can you somehow delete it? It just creates noise and there is no way to open it from the web interface.

I think the empty entry is: https://git.eclipse.org/r/c/pde/eclipse.pde.ui/+/161569 which has been abandoned.  Are you sure you want me to delete it?

The gerrit you refer to is abandoned but my query is for "open" gerrits so I don't think it's the same.

Well, like you I can't interact with whatever change this is via the web ui, so I was trying to find another way to find it.

If the Gerrit change table can be trusted, there are 6 'blank' changes with the same owner for the pde/eclipse.pde.ui repo, and only one with a modification timestamp that seems to match:

https://git.eclipse.org/r/c/pde/eclipse.pde.ui/+/161234

So I updated the subject in the change table to a non-null value, but even with a cache flush that change isn't appearing so either this weirdness is stored in Git or someplace else.

I can try removing it if you like.

-M.

Thanks for identifying it! I changed the commit message to not have extra new line and subject appears correctly now. 
I consider this one fixed now.
