I am trying to use
git_credential_ssh_custom_newin order to sign the SSH challenge manually (using a hardware key).I don't understand when
sign_callbackis supposed to be called. In my case, it never is, and therefore my git_credential_acquire_cb is called in a loop. My best guest is that probably I am not giving the right publickey togit_credential_ssh_custom_new, but I am not sure what the documentation means by "The bytes of the public key". Should I just read the.pubfile as bytes and pass that?My overall idea is to have
git_credential_ssh_custom_newregister thesign_callback, where I would receive the SSH challenge, sign it with my private key (which is on a hardware key) and return it. But it seems like I am missing something...Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
