For diffs I much prefer the gerrit view because it highlights changes
within changed lines, for example

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/plugins/gitiles/core/+/9672d034b9e760f24ac9a6652ab45dee15ee260a%5E%21/

vs

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/gitweb?p=core.git;a=commitdiff;h=9672d034b9e760f24ac9a6652ab45dee15ee260a

Would that be possible also with gitiles?

Why is git:// deprecated? From what I know it's more efficient when
fetching/pulling than https:// (or ssh://?)
