Terminally Deprecated Elements

Element	Description
com.google.gerrit.server.change.ChangeFinder.find(Change.Id)	this method is not reliable in Gerrit instances with imported changes, since multiple changes can have the same change number and make the `changeIdProjectCache` cache pointless.
com.google.gerrit.server.notedb.ChangeNotes.Factory.createUsingIndexLookup(Collection<Change.Id>)

Deprecated Classes

Class	Description
com.google.gerrit.entities.RobotComment
com.google.gerrit.extensions.api.changes.ReviewInput.RobotCommentInput
com.google.gerrit.extensions.common.InstallPluginInput	use InstallPluginInput.
com.google.gerrit.extensions.common.RobotCommentInfo
com.google.gerrit.server.restapi.change.RobotComments

com.google.gerrit.extensions.api.projects.ConfigInfo.submitType
com.google.gerrit.server.index.change.ChangeField.ASSIGNEE_FIELD

Deprecated Methods

Method	Description
com.google.gerrit.entities.LabelType.Builder.setFunction(LabelFunction)	All label functions except PATCH_SET_LOCK are deprecated in favour of using submit requirements. When submit requirements are used the label function needs to be set to NO_BLOCK (or NO_OP which is semantically the same). This is to override the default label function which is MAX_WITH_BLOCK and which should not be used in combination with a submit requirement.
com.google.gerrit.entities.PatchSet.isRef(String)	use isChangeRef instead.
com.google.gerrit.extensions.api.changes.ChangeApi.comments()	Callers should use ChangeApi.commentsRequest() instead
com.google.gerrit.extensions.api.changes.ChangeApi.commentsAsList()	Callers should use ChangeApi.commentsRequest() instead
com.google.gerrit.extensions.api.changes.ChangeApi.NotImplemented.comments()
com.google.gerrit.extensions.api.changes.ChangeApi.NotImplemented.commentsAsList()
com.google.gerrit.extensions.api.changes.Changes.id(int)	in favor of Changes.id(String, int)
com.google.gerrit.extensions.api.plugins.Plugins.install(String, InstallPluginInput)
com.google.gerrit.extensions.api.plugins.Plugins.NotImplemented.install(String, InstallPluginInput)
com.google.gerrit.extensions.webui.PatchSetWebLink.getPatchSetWebLink(String, String, String, String)
com.google.gerrit.extensions.webui.PatchSetWebLink.getPatchSetWebLink(String, String, String, String, String)
com.google.gerrit.server.account.AccountResolver.resolveByExactNameOrEmail(String)	for use only by MailUtil for parsing commit footers; that class needs to be reevaluated.
com.google.gerrit.server.account.AccountResolver.resolveByNameOrEmail(String)	for use only by MailUtil for parsing commit footers; that class needs to be reevaluated.
com.google.gerrit.server.change.ChangeFinder.find(Change.Id)	this method is not reliable in Gerrit instances with imported changes, since multiple changes can have the same change number and make the `changeIdProjectCache` cache pointless.
com.google.gerrit.server.change.ChangeInserter.setUpdateRef(boolean)
com.google.gerrit.server.git.DelegateRepository.getAllRefs()
com.google.gerrit.server.git.DelegateRepository.getTags()
com.google.gerrit.server.git.DelegateRepository.hasObject(AnyObjectId)
com.google.gerrit.server.git.DelegateRepository.peel(Ref)
com.google.gerrit.server.index.change.ChangeIndexer.index(Change)	callers should use ChangeIndexer.index(com.google.gerrit.entities.Project.NameKey, com.google.gerrit.entities.Change.Id) which reloads the full change details, including the associated serverId.
com.google.gerrit.server.notedb.ChangeNotes.Factory.createUsingIndexLookup(Collection<Change.Id>)
