Couple of suggestion, use https and change your http pass ASAP (and don't pass
it again on a public mail list)

Normal users don't have permission to list email addresses (to avoid spamming).

you can use the ssh call instead, that will get you the info you want (you can
pass --format=json too if you prefer json to yaml).

Where did you pushed it to?

You should puth it to a custom ref for gerrit to know it's a patch, usually:

  git push origin HEAD:refs/for/master

Changing master for the branch you want the patch to go to. Is that what you
did?
