In order to create a new account in Gerrit, click on the “Register” link at the top right of the page, pick your favorite OpenID
or OAuth2 providers
and use it to log in.

* GitHub

+

* Google

=== Link existing account to alternative provider ===

+

+

Login with existing account, navigate to User=>Settings=>Identities

+

push "Link Another Identity" button. Example: login with Launchpad,

+

existing Gerrit account (that was created using Launchpad OpenID providers).
