whoa! that's a quick reply ;-).
I would really appreciate if the ssh issue could get addressed by the
developers.
It has my attention. I just don't know what to do about it. Do you have
no offense meant (I was not implying no one cares..).
any suggestions on how to improve the way the SSH method operates?
unfortunately, no: I neither know too much ssh internals nor how fossil
operates over ssh. I really spent quite some time these last days hunting
around the net and did everything which was recommended (silencing the
login, avoiding tcsh). ssh itself works fine (and does so, e.g., both with
svn and mercurial) for me.
from what I've read I was not able to understand what the problem really
is: what is different in fossil's usage of ssh compared, e.g. to mercurial?
I seem to understand that fossil is confused by chatty login messages, but
I've got rid of them without the problem going away. what happens between
the ssh message
debug2: shell request accepted on channel 0
and
fossil: ssh connection failed: []
could e.g. a `ssh-debug' flag be added to `fossil set' which enables a
comprehensive log of relevant information (on the client side? on the
server side?) to
better understand what's going on? I would be happy to provide such
logging information (as long as no privacy/security concerns are involved)
or is the principle reason of failure known anyway?
frequently, there are some searchpath issues (e.g. non-interactive vs.
interactive shell, path updated/augmented at different places (system wide
and local .bashrc .profile etc.)). maybe something like `fsl set
path_to_remote_fossil' (or added to the ssh-command) could help to
definitely get fossil started on the other side?
just guessing, of course...
