Pavel,
The latest Python 2.7.x and Mercurial port hasn’t had any testing or
configuration done
to support ssh. That’s partially for two reasons:
1) I have no hosts supporting ssh v1 any more, nor any remote hg
repository
services with ssh v1.
2) I’ve never been able to get the ssh v2 version to work on Plan 9 for
testing.
Once ssh v2 is more easily configurable on Plan 9 it wouldn’t take much to
validate sshcmd
and sshargs are prepared properly to access remote services.
