You should be able to get away with this: ssh-agent /bin/bash ssh-add git clone -- http://people.eisenbits.com/~stf/ http://www.eisenbits.com/ OpenPGP: E3D9 C030 88F5 D254 434C 6683 17DD 22A0 8A3B 5CC0 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
