Gerrit: allow to submit WIP patches
0%
Description
In some particular cases I want to cherry-pick a large relation chain of patches. e.g https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/205423. In order to avoid CI from building each and every patch individually, I submit them to gerrit as WIP and set to active the topmost patch, so only one build is needed to test the whole relation chain. The problem comes when I want to submit to the branch the WIP patches, because in order to do so I need to set them to active first, and when I do it then CI is triggered, so I have to abort every build individually, which is tedious, so I would like to be able to submit WIP patches, which is not possible at the moment

What if you push them from a local branch with
./logerrit submit libreoffice-26-2%wip

yes, that's what I did, but once I want to push the patches to the repo, I can't do it from the webUI unless I set them to active before, which triggers CI
