> A new submit strategy was included in recent builds of Gerrit: Rebase Always.
> [Docs|https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/project-configuration.html#rebase_always]:
> {quote}Basically, the same as Rebase If Necessary, but it creates a new patchset even if fast forward is possible AND like Cherry Pick it ensures footers such as Change-Id, Reviewed-On, and others are present in resulting commit that is merged.
> Thus, Rebase Always can be considered similar to Cherry Pick, but with the important distinction that Rebase Always does not ignore dependencies.{quote}
> It is only available in [2.14|https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit/+/stable-2.14/gerrit-server/src/main/java/com/google/gerrit/server/git/strategy/] while we are still at 2.12 and [2.13|https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit/+/stable-2.13/gerrit-server/src/main/java/com/google/gerrit/server/git/strategy/] is the current stable branch.
