I had to use ssh jmayer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -p29418 gerrit --help
instead but yes, that works. So it seems that this may indeed be
some sort of client side problem.

I have installed git-review (it is a standard package with openSUSE).

Once I've finished cloning the repo (somehow it's not my day: git clone
is an atomic operation and I'm behind an unstable Wireless connection),
how do I proceed? Is there a wiki page that I can follow to set all
the required and recommented git variables to use the correct id, push
to the right place etc?

Thanks!
