The first question which comes to me is in CVS we have user authentication like username and their password while in GIT there is SSH authentication. Can any one suggest me what is the optimal way to manage the users in GIT? Does all users having username,passowrd and SSH key? or thre is no users credential but only SSH authentication? if I have 1000 users in old system CVS then do I need to create a key for all 1000 users in GIT? or etc. Thanks in advance... -- View this message in context: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/User-authentication-in-GIT-tp7261349p7261349.html Sent from the git mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
