There is no need to do the git authentication on a trac instance, if its git server is read-only (and gets updates from another git server, on which the real pushing is done). Here is such a scheme for trac+github integration: https://github.com/trac-hacks/trac-github (imho it's a good idea, as it also does a real-time backup of git repo along the way)... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
