The _protocol_ could handle it, but you obviously need some kind of secure authentication, and quite frankly, one of the selling points on git-daemon right now is that it's all read-only and very simple and there should be no security issues because it will never write anything at all. So right now git-daemon only accepts requests from fetch-pack. > > [ Hey. There's a deer outside my window eating our roses again. Cute ] > > Oh, it must be nice in Oregon.

They're cute, though, and it's kind of funny looking up from the screen and noticing one munching on the roses just ten feet away.
