Hi Hugh,

I maintain a somewhat widely used access control program for remote
access to git, so I'm interested also.

Gitolite [1] and similar systems provide access control for git repos.
There's a very good chance that something which is not a concern for
"local" use, could become an attack vector if enabled through gitolite.

Hence my interest, and my request that I be copied.

Jonathan/Junio/Jeff: if such a mailing list does happen please consider
adding me into it.

regards
sitaram
