Ok... so is it completely ignoring the @host bit then? None of my
public key files are called howard@host1.pub (for example).

Just so you don't think I'm completely crazy, I actually use three
different machines for development and (of course) I'm 'howard' on all
of them. I was trying to get my head around the best way to set it up.
I wasn't clear if I could simply recycle the same public key or if I
needed to be three different users in gitosis.
