Hi, I'm running a standard self-hosted install of gitorious on Ubuntu - set 
up following this guide:  
http://coding-journal.com/installing-gitorious-on-ubuntu-11-04/

I've got a public/private key pair which I use to log in everywhere so I 
know it works. I have pasted the public key into gitorious using the web 
interface and it was accepted. However, I keep being asked for the SSH 
password of the git user whenever I try to clone a repo. 

My gitorious_client_host and gitorious_host are both set to 
gitorious.company.com, I have tried gitorious_clone_host as set to the same 
and unset, it doesn't seem to make a difference. I have also manually 
pasted my public key into .ssh/authorized_keys in the git user's home 
directory and it is still not being accepted. I restart apache2 after each 
configuration change like this. 

It is weird, because the same key pair can be used to log into my "regular" 
account on the same box. I didn't know why there would be, but to test for 
any conflicts I generated another key pair and tried this, with the same 
problems. I'm really at a loss to explain what's gone wrong here, I'm sure 
it's stupidly simple, can anyone help? Thank you in advance :)
