When not logged in, gerrit should show, for the "checkout", "cherry-pick", etc command-lines examples using the smart/anonymous git:// protocol instead of the "dumb" https://. So, e.g. instead of git pull https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/core refs/changes/08/2508/2 display git pull git://gerrit.libreoffice.org/core refs/changes/08/2508/2 It uses less bandwidth (when run on a repository that already has a "near" commit to the one being fetched), and avoids "errors" such as: error: server certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CRLfile: none while accessing https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/core/info/refs fatal: HTTP request failed (Yes, I'm aware that I'm the "unusal" guy there, not having the StartCom root as trusted in my store.)
As it's you Lionel marking as NEW. Not sure who we ping about this or if you can take care of it
Adding our gerrit experts (as per https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/FindTheExpert) to CC
Hmm, I dont know. https:// should always work (as you are already viewing the webpage), while git might be eaten by a corp. firewall etc.. So I assume more people will have trouble with git: vs. https:
(In reply to comment #3) > Hmm, I dont know. https:// should always work (as you are already viewing > the webpage), while git might be eaten by a corp. firewall etc.. Corporate firewall: good point. How about putting a choice? When one is logged in, one has choice between "Anonymous HTTP", "SSH" or "HTTP". How about *adding* a choice of "Anonymous git", that both logged in and non-logged in users get? Actually, the "Anonymous HTTP" and "HTTP" choices seem not to work at all. I did: $ export GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=true $ git fetch https://lmamane@gerrit.libreoffice.org/core refs/changes/08/2508/4 ## this was copy-pasted from https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/2508/ and I get: fatal: Couldn't find remote ref refs/changes/08/2508/4 Unexpected end of command stream

How about to try to fetch a change that has not been yet merged? [david@wizball libo (master)] git fetch https://davido@gerrit.libreoffice.org/core refs/changes/49/2549/1 && git checkout FETCH_HEAD From https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/core * branch refs/changes/49/2549/1 -> FETCH_HEAD M translations Note: checking out 'FETCH_HEAD'. You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout. If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example: git checkout -b new_branch_name HEAD is now at 6bb905f... Add PDF Mimetype to Draw [david@wizball libo ((6bb905f...))]$ git checkout -b mimetype M translations Switched to a new branch 'mimetype'

Not our bug. Issue tracker for Gerrit Code Review is here: [1]. [1] https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/list
I'm fairly sure it is a question of configuration of the gerrit instance... not fixing the gerrit code. Anyway, is fixed now on our current gerrit instance.
