10:08 <borneoa___> PaulFertser: hello, something unusual on Gerrit. The change 8802 has been posted on March 9, while the 8618 on March 26. The change number is not anymore growing?

10:09 <borneoa___> PaulFertser: the other changes linked to 8618, abandoned as duplicate, have numbers following 8618

11:12 <borneoa___> PaulFertser: plotting change number vs field createdOn I see this happened already few times in the past. Hope we don't lose some contribution if it gets overwritten

11:14 <PaulFertser> borneoa___: interesting observation. One would guess there should be no "holes" there and no opportunity to reuse. Needs to be researched indeed.

11:22 <PaulFertser> This looks relevant: https://groups.google.com/g/repo-discuss/c/87I7LufhiFA

11:23 <PaulFertser> Probably it got a feature to re-use numbers from "gaps" since then.

19:20 <borneoa___> PaulFertser: thanks for the link. Yep, probably it's an expected behavior. I have dumped the server in batches of 1000 consecutive ID and I always get less than 1000 commits per chunk. The link above explains this behavior too

19:50 <PaulFertser> borneoa___: doesn't explain the reclaiming of the old chunks though.
