Hi Jeff - thanks for the code/tip, I tried using the branch, installed it, and yet I'm still seeing the same problem: seems to hang, have to hit CTRL-C, then belatedly see a password prompt.
Note that when I did, git checkout execution ...per your instructions, I get an error: error: pathspec 'execution' did not match any file(s) known to git. Did you forget to 'git add'? Probably I'm doing something stupid, as I'm not a git user. Per Jordi's suggestion (thank you Jordi), setting sudo to require NOPASSWD results in the remote tail command working just fine. So it is a password related problem.
