Unfortunately, yes, so you'd need a passphraseless key set up specifically for systems which need Git access. Not a great solution, though on the other hand that setup isn't uncommon either (given the various situations where interactivity won't ever be possible/wanted, e.g. CI servers, cron jobs, etc). I'm still plugging away at the interactivity issue; if I'm lucky and it looks like I can set up something fully backwards compatible*, I'll probably merge something into master soon (if not release an actual 1.0, though that will also be relatively soon). Best, Jeff * The default user-level behavior should be the same, but the underlying mechanism will change significantly to allow the optional interactivity, so there's lots of chances for edge-case bugs to crop up. -- Jeff Forcier Unix sysadmin; Python/Ruby developer http://bitprophet.org _______________________________________________ Fab-user mailing list Fab-user@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fab-user
