[PATCH] Allow git-shell to be used as a ssh forced-command

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When using a forced-command, OpenSSH sets the SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND
variable to what would otherwise be passed to $SHELL -c. When this
variable is set, we use it instead of the contents of argv.

I was unsure whether I needed to give more information about
forced-commands in the commit message itself, anyways, just in case
you don't know what it is:

I'm not sure if it's worth adding a check for SSH2_ORIGINAL_COMMAND.
Are people using the commercial SSH2 ?
