Hi there,
I tried to add a repository which is only reachable via git over ssh; no
access via git port (9418 according to /etc/services) or http(s). Only ssh
connections with public key are accepted.
I tried
Layman -o ssh://git@myserver/path/to/repo.git -f -a myrepo, but failed with
"invalid url".
Then I tried the same with "git://git@..." , also failed.
It seems like it does not accept the url scheme and refusing to connect at
all. Next thing I tried is to create a repository.xml and put it to the local
file system:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE repositories SYSTEM "/dtd/repositories.dtd">
<repositories xmlns="" version="1.0">
<repo quality="experimental" status="unofficial">
<name>my-repo</name>
<description lang="en">My overlay</description>
<owner type="person">
<email>alexander.puchmayr#my-email.com</email>
<name>Alexander Puchmayr></name>
</owner>
</repo>
<source type="git">git://myserver/path/to/repo.git</source>
</repositories>
Layman -o repository.xml -f -a myrepo now tries to fetch it via the git port
(9418), failing with timeout.
Replacing source type="git" with "ssh", "ssh+git", "git+ssh" also did not
succeed.
I'm pretty sure not being the first one trying this, but I cannot find any
useful information how to do this. So how can I achieve this?
Thanks
Alex
