Hi all!
tl;dr: Gerrit HTTP token auth has been re-enabled. To use it you'll need to
generate a token via your preferences page[0].
Gerrit HTTP token auth was disabled in mid-march due to concerns about its
implementation[1].
Thanks to the work of Paladox and Gerrit upstream in Gerrit 2.15.14[2] we've
re-enabled HTTP token authentication.
I previously removed all HTTP auth tokens, so in order to use HTTP token auth
you'll need to generate a fresh token via your preference page[0]
