Generally this works for Gerrit, not 100% sure if it is correctly
configured for coreboots gerrit instance.
You have to use the URI http://review.coreboot.org/p/coreboot.git
You will also have to generate a HTTP password at
http://review.coreboot.org/#/settings/http-password
Lastly at least git 1.6.6 is required for this to work.

Hope this helps.
