Sorry, I was assuming the things you sent to the list were relevant for the subscribers.

Possibly. In any case it's a problem in Trac that should be solved together with Trac upstream. > Do you know if we can add trac.macports.org to a whitelist for the > corresponding filter rule, or some other host? I do not know how privoxy works. If this uses some global filter rules, please get in touch with the maintainers of these filter rules yourself. Otherwise, adding an exception for trac.macports.org should be sufficient. > > What makes you think this is running on GitHub? > > The Github login.

GitHub allows 3rd party applications to use their login service, which is what we are doing. See https://developer.github.com/v3/oauth/. Our servers do not serve the GitHub login page, and we never see your GitHub password. In a nutshell, we redirect a user to a special URL at GitHub and pass an application ID and a nonce. That user logs in to GitHub and GitHub sends them back to our webserver with a HMAC using a previously shared key matching the application ID so we know the login was successful. It's a little more complicated than that, but the OAuth standard should answer all your remaining questions. -- Clemens _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
