I would like to be able to create Gerrit repos.
As a WMDE employee this would reduce the time we spend blocked on / waiting for repos to be created.
I'm not sure if this is the correct tag for such a request and I am unsure what groups etc actually need to be changed to make this happen.
I don't think this needs an ops access request, we'd need to add you to https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/admin/groups/119,members
Edit: I'm slow.
Yea, historically this has been more of a Gerrit admin / releng thing than an ops thing. The people who currently create repos for you when you request them would also be the people to grant you the right to create them yourself. Afaict, as paladox says.
