I searched, found https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/  and (as usual?) wondered how distant is this latest documentation from the older Gerrit version I actually have to use.

So I searched instead for older versions of Documentation/ and that took me a surprisingly long time. So I'm sharing one example to save others time:


"Others" includes of course a future version of myself (hi!)

This is rendered by gitiles so I'm not sure if all the links and images will work properly. 

The documentation generated during the release process can be found here:

The full release download page includes documentation links for every release:

All official releases come with embedded documentation which can be accessed via /Documentation/ in your running server. That's the simplest way to ensure you're seeing at the version of docs corresponding to the server you're looking at.

Doh! Finally found it there, sorry for the noise. Maybe all the other answers will be useful to some archeologist interested in comparing old versions.

Note manually and naively entering fu.bar.com/Documentation/ returned "Forbidden" on my particular server, I had to follow links which lead me to /Documentation/index.html which works as expected.
