I'm not at all resistant to using ssh, but on some servers, particularly on a number of shared hosts out there, all kinds of shell are disabled, including ssh, so that wouldn't work. With cgi, you could have a global ui allowing the creation of a new repository, but I understand the argument stated in this thread that this is not desirable for cross-compatibility. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
