An intern here at CSCS has created a topic branch for paraview and one for VTK upon which the paraview one depends. I tried to push the VTK branch to gerrit to start the code review process. He’s leaving after tomorrow, so I’ll be the one doing the majority
of maintenance going forwards. Other than registering his email to me as appears a possibility in the text below, is there another way in which I can push his branch and take over ownership without losing his identity as the person who made the commit. Right
now it’s one huge commit which is a very long tree of commits squashed into a single new feature.<br>
