From: Stephen R. van den Berg Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2008 16:26:44 GMT Subject: [RFC] Adding a challenge-response authentication method to git:// Message-ID: <20080813162644.GC12200@cuci.nl> What are the opinions on adding a basic challenge-response type authentication mechanism to the native git protocol? I.e. the authentication would be a simple one, which uses SHA1 (surprise ;-) to actually encrypt username/password/salt and authenticate the user. I'm willing to do the work, if there are no objections. -- Sincerely, Stephen R. van den Berg. "And now for something *completely* different!"
