NAME

       hg-ssh - restricted ssh login shell for Mercurial

SYNOPSIS

       hg-ssh repositories...

DESCRIPTION

       hg-ssh is 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 from/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"

       You can use pattern matching of your normal  shell,  e.g.:  command="cd  repos  &&  hg-ssh  user/thomas/*
       projects/{mercurial,foo}"

       You can also add a --read-only flag to allow read-only access to a key, e.g.: command="hg-ssh --read-only
       repos/*"

       Probably lots, please post them to the mailing list (see Resources below) when you find them.
