I bet it never worked or only worked by accident when the Gerrit trigger was set up. Anyway, the build issue - as I've been told - is not new. Thus I didn't report it as a new bug.

One of those was mine, and I was concerned that it hadn’t been applied, which is why I asked if it was successful. 

https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/19484/

It turns out that the change was manually cherry picked into the Equinox codebase, even though the build in Gerrit was marked as failed and the bug is still showing as open in my bundles review:

https://git.eclipse.org/c/equinox/rt.equinox.bundles.git/commit/?id=35033c8021dde91c3dab707604ceb3df689a7d10

https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/q/is:open+owner:%22Alex+Blewitt+%253Calex.blewitt%2540gmail.com%253E%22,n,z

So yes, it’s clear that the Equinox project doesn’t use Gerrit.
