[Python-modules-team] Bug#887862: git-review: Download of change branch fails

[Jaap Keuter]

Package: git-review
Version: 1.25.0-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The following transpires when downloading a change with git-review


git review -d 25398
Using global/system git-review config files (/etc/git-review/git-review.conf) is deprecated
Downloading refs/changes/98/25398/1 from gerrit
Cannot set upstream to remote branch
The following command failed with exit code 128
    "git branch --set-upstream review/jaap_keuter/25398 origin/master"
-----------------------
fatal: the '--set-upstream' option is no longer supported. Please use '--track' or '--set-upstream-to' instead.
-----------------------

Packaging the new 1.26 version would likely address this. Please consider packaging it.

Thanks,
Jaap
