Gerrit configuration
Perforce provides a custom Python plug-in script named gconn-change-merged.py. When properly renamed, the script enables Gerrit to generate a webhook for a specific type of Git commit, either change-merged or ref-update. You might want to have two copies of the script, one for each type of action.
Prerequisites
The target repo must NOT already exist in P4 Server.
The source repo must not be empty.
