Sorry, i haven't found that, yet, so i asked..

in my case it would be only one system-user which has full access to several repositories. At this time, the users which use that account, have to give a password, which isn't that bad... it would be easier and more secure for me, not to give a password, but ask the users for the ssh pubkey..

I can still live with the password thing :)

Sincerly Nicolas
