That Change-Id is what links multiple revisions of the same change together. So, if you edit your change and push it again, as long as the Change-Id remains the same, gerrit treats it as the same review request and not a new one.</div><div><br></div><div>-- </div><div>Russell Bryant</div></div></div></div>
