Subject: gitosis: expects ssh key comment to be in u...@host format Package: gitosis Version: 0.2+20080825-2 Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line *** According to ssh.py, gitosis-init expects the "comment" field in the ssh key to be in the "u...@host" format, as it is the default in ssh-keygen. However my key had something else there and it resulted in a nice stack trace that made me waste a few minutes trying to understand what was wrong :) Please at least update the documentation to mention the importance of the comment field. Or maybe when #474082 is fixed, advertise the username option.
