Added hg-ssh - a wrapper for ssh access to a limited set of mercurial repos To be used in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys with the "command" option, see sshd(8): command="hg-ssh path/to/repo1 /path/to/repo2 ~/repo3 ~user/repo4" ssh-dss ... (probably together with these other useful options: no-port-forwarding,no-X11-forwarding,no-agent-forwarding) This allows pull/push over ssh to to the repositories given as arguments. If all your repositories are subdirectories of a common directory, you can allow shorter paths with: command="cd path/to/my/repositories && hg-ssh repo1 subdir/repo2"
