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.
