You can perform these steps: 1: Rename origin to upstream.(git rename origin upstream) 2: Add new remote origin.(git remote add origin git(a)gitlab.com:<username>/mailmam.git)(If you want then you can copy exact SSH url from your fork's GitLab page.) 3: Push your branch to origin.(git push origin <branch_name> 4: Create a Merge Request.

Hi vinay, Have you setup your remotes correctly as mentioned in: http://wiki.list.org/DEV/HowToContributeGit You can check your remote by this command: git remote -v It must show your fork as origin. If it doesn't show your fork as origin then you must setup remotes correctly as mentioned in the guide. You can use git remote rename command to rename your remotes. You should always push to your fork and then create a merge request. Regards, Harshit Bansal.

Hi, this is Vinay Mundada and I am trying to apply for GSoC at Mailman. I was solving this issue #109 on postorius, but then when i tried to push my branch to origin it said "GitLab: You are not allowed to push code to this project." How should I go about then? *Thanks & Regards,* *Vinay Mundada*

Because the mailman3.org system is in beta (to be generous). Google sign-in is "supposed" to work, but doesn't. Try going through Persona with your Google account, as Simon suggested. Worked for me. > Are there people who have installed MM3 on FreeBSD? And integrated > with Exim? > I think Turnbull has his running with Exim, but on Linux. I got it running but that was a long time ago, pre-release (and pre-persona), and for a limited-time low-traffic list. Since then I've not had time to upgrade, and Postorius/HyperKitty weren't tested at all except for mass subscribe IIRC (although I might even have done that by mailman.client, as it was called then). I see no reason why the Exim integration would change: https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/blob/master/src/mailman/docs/MTA.rst#exim As far as I can recall the MM3_UID and MM3_GID are no-ops, as Mailman 3 communicates entirely by sockets. Exim has no need to know. (The variables are a holdover from Mailman 2 where pipes are used, so Exim needs to run Mailman with the appropriate privileges IIRC.) > I'd love to have someone share their notes on installation on > FreeBSD. Mailman core really shouldn't be OS-specific (except to the extent that a supported MTA and Python are available). All communication takes place via (Unix-domain) sockets. I'm not sure that things won't be a little hairier for HyperKitty and Postorius, but again, as long as Python runs, they should work the same on any system that supports sockets (that's one of the advantages of the current architecture -- zeroconf, not yet, but configuration is getting easier). The only thing I can think of that might be vendor-specific is the location of Mailman itself, but at this point in time I see no reason to install it anywhere but /usr/local. The real problems that people have are plain ol' bugs.

This server is not yet fully operational. That's why currently only persona works. > Are there people who have installed MM3 on FreeBSD? And integrated with > Exim? There was a merge adding something about exim, so it should work. Search the the archives and mailman docs.
