It would be nice to have a way to enable anonymous access to Gerrit (without having to log in) when it's configured with auth.type = HTTP

Right now, people can't just see a change if they don't have a valid user in Gerrit, which is annoying.

This should work in the same way as auth.type = LDAP works.

Patches need to be uploaded to Gerrit to be reviewed and accepted.  We can't work with patches floating around on issue trackers.

It's not my patch so I can't upload it to Gerrit.

I had a look at the code and anonymous access with HTTP authentication can be configured using the following settings.

In gerrit.conf:
[auth]
	type = HTTP
	loginUrl = http://<host>/gerrit/login/

Also the container must be configured to request authentication for http://<host>/gerrit/login/ only and not for http://<host>/gerrit/

I tried it using an Apache reverse proxy. It seems to work, but I did not test in too much depth.
