Re: Accessing the subversion repository

Yes, it did, but as usual with OpenSSH entirely without documentation other than a changelog entry and silent change to the manpage describing the extra options but not how to use them. As a result, I wasn't sure how to use it for anything. Your example there is the first I've seen, and is decidedly helpful: thanks! -- ...Hires Root Beer...

There would at most be one per user making commits to the depot. Do you really have hundreds of people making commits? You probably have hundreds of people pulling sources by anonymous read-only access but that is a different path. I will agree that the default timeout value for fsh is too long. The default is apparently ten hours unless changed. For me personally 15 minutes is a good value and I would set the default on the server to something short. Bob
