Hi Marius, I'm still a bit confused. We've hosted the gitorious server on git.companyname.com for quite a while and I don't it has caused any problems and the requests have still been going over ssh (not https).
Could you clarify this more and/or tell me where this happens in the gitorious code base and why this is done? Thanks!
