I see the ssh implementation as a possible stepping stone to something
along the lines of gitolite for fossil. The gitolite pages have some good
background on using ssh for this along with a troubleshooting document that
I found very helpful when setting it up (a non-trivial exercise at the
time).

For reference gitolite ssh info can be found here:
