+Upload denied for project '...'
+===============================
+
+With this error message Gerrit rejects to push a commit if the
+pushing user has no upload permissions for the project to which the
+push was done.
+
+There are two possibilities how to continue in this situation:
+1. contact one of the project owners and request upload permissions
+   for the project (access right '+2 Upload permission' in the
+   link:access-control.html#category_READ['Read Access'] category)
+2. export your commit as a patch using the link:http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-format-patch.html[git format-patch] command
+   and provide the patch file to one of the project owners
