Yes, it's a  bit different becuase now Fossil  credentials are required.
Before, the file was just opened with localauth enabled.

The default behavior is SSH User = Fossil User (credentials required).

But  with the  --ssh-fossil-user it  is possible  to use  any number  of
Fossil users sharing the same SSH account (primarily through SSH keys).

Addtionally, it  is now possible to  use SSH keys and  Force Commands to
restrict the SSH account to doing Fossil only activities.


One thing that I haven't done, but  might be necessary, is to change the
password prompt from:

password for user:

To:

Fossil password for user:

Or something  like that, just so  it is not ambiguous  which password is
being entered.

Thanks for looking at it!
