I use ssh for subversion commits and restrict my users from gaining shell access by using the "command=" field in authorized_keys. Not sure if a similar thing could be done for scp. On my svn server, I have this in the authorized_keys files - command="umask 002;/usr/bin/svnserve -t -r /home/project",no-port-forwarding,no-X11-forwarding,no-agent-forwarding,no-pty ssh-rsa [RSA public key goes here...] Openssh is available on the Mac. It's what I use every day.
