http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.4.2/user-upload.html currently suggests using refs/for/* for uploading changes.

According to the 2.3 release notes (http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotes-2.3.html), "refs/for/ should be deprecated in favor of explicitly marking a patchset as a draft or directly to review."

In fact the documentation doesn't even mention the existance of draft changes - the only place I can find it is that you can use the is:draft search query, but no mention on the upload instructions.

We have undeprecated refs/for/. So the documentation is correct again.
