Hi Patrick, Martin,

I just noticed that we seem to have dropped support for cgit on the
coreboot Gerrit. I don't exactly remember how it worked, but I seem to
have been able to get a link like
https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/qc_blobs.git/plain/sc7180/qtiseclib/libqtisec.a
some time last year. Now that just redirects to Gitiles.

The problem with Gitiles is it's impossible to just get a direct
download link to a file -- you can only see source files in the
browser view (with the Gitiles UI on the side), but you can't download
the raw file exactly as it is in the repo. This is especially
problematic for binary files where there is (as far as I can tell?
Maybe I just can't find it...) no way to get their contents at all
without downloading a whole tarball of a directory and extracting it
(which is pretty cumbersome).

Do you guys know why this happened and is there any chance we could
get cgit back?

Thanks,
Julius
