   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Gerrit has a variety of access control rules.  For pushing new work
one of its rules is whether one is allowed to "forge identity".
Currently it is set to allow the *author* to be forged but not
the *committer*.

I guess this is another way that it is designed for individual
commit review rather than topic branches.  With individual commits
the pusher would almost certainly be the committer.  With topic
branches it can be common to communicate branches outside of
Gerrit.

I added you to the "ITK-core" group and gave the group permission
to forge committer identity.  Now you should be able to upload
the commits.
