#13611: openssh messes up X11 Forwarding -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: andre@cabine.org | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.5.2 Resolution: | Keywords: -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Comment (by vinc17@macports.org): You can still be able to use Apple's ssh by setting GIT_SSH. Installing git-core will install openssh due to the dependency, but this shouldn't hurt. BTW, the dependency may be a good idea by default. But a variant to avoid it would probably be a good thing for powerful users as AFAIK, the MacPorts version can't prevent the user from choosing Apple's version via GIT_SSH. Also, do you really need X11 forwarding for git? I thought SSH was used only to transfer the repository data. You can try: {{{export GIT_SSH="ssh -x"}}} (or use a wrapper script). -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13611#comment:7> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
