#3 Remove SVN Repo

Andre John Mas — Fri, 21 Feb 2014 15:51:50 -0000

Validated that both repos currently have the same content. Creating a 'git svn clone' as a form of backup, just in case. Will remove.

Remove SVN Repo and focus all work on Git. This will avoid confusion.

Need ssh agent forwarding feature.

SSH_AUTH_SOCK support

Jesse Glick — Tue, 07 Aug 2012 13:53:34 -0000

When ~/.ssh/id_* is encrypted and you are running ssh-agent, as a modern Linux distribution would automatically, command-line openssh-client automatically connects to SSH_AUTH_SOCK to decrypt it. But when using the Java library you need to manually reenter your passphrase.

Better would be for it to implement a subset of the functionality in OpenSSH's authfd.c (I think) to connect to the agent. Unfortunately this requires AF_UNIX support, and there is none built in to Java; there are a few impls such as https://github.com/diega/libmatthew-java but none that I know of using JNA.

(It would suffice if a command in openssh-client could be run to do the decryption in a forked process, but I do not know of any such.)
