java - NBGit to remote host with ssh

Question

I′m trying to get that working:

clone a git project from an ssh server with NBGit. I get NBGit installed, works well local, but when given the connection parameters I′m not sure what is the right URL.

Or maybe it is not supported at the moment?

NBGit 0.4 for NB 6.9.1 on Win7

Answer 1

The URL should be:

git@myserver:/myreppo

But as reported in issue 91, that might not work very well.
I would explore the workaround presented in issue 56:

In your ~/.ssh directory, create a "config" file

open ~/.ssh/config in a text editor and put in the following:

Host AHostName -- this will be the name you will be calling in nbgit
User gituser
Hostname SSH IP address --eg 192.68.24.1 --my git server
Port 1234 -- use this if you need custom ports
IdentityFile "path to your private ssh key"

From there, the url can be:

AHostName:myrepo
