Today (Dec 12) there was an update performed to gerrit web server changing
how apache proxies requests to the java application. This change is in
preperation for the update of gerrit planned for December 16th. We have
moved from utilizing mod_rewrite to directly using mod_proxy. In performing
this change, slashes no longer can (or need to be) double encoded when
interacting with the Gerrit REST API.

For example, the query:

needs to be changed to
https://review.openstack.org/a/changes/openstack%2Fkeystone~master~Ie5441ab469668aa23418ca2290c43693e04142dc/detail

eliminating the double-encoded slashes.

If there are any questions or issues please feel free to reach out to the
mailing list or in #openstack-infra.
