[tcf-dev] RESOLVED: Committers access: SSH key authentication not workin

["Stieber, Uwe" <Uwe.Stieber@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

With the help of the webmasters to clean out my committer home @eclipse.org, I had been able to resolve the issue for me. Works perfectly fine now.

Please note that the "scp" instruction on http://wiki.eclipse.org/Git are some what incorrect/unclear. I think the correct instructions should be:

	mkdir -p eclipse/.ssh
	cat my.key.pub >> eclipse/.ssh/authorized_keys
	cd eclipse
	chmod 700 .ssh
	chmod 600 .ssh/authorized_keys
	scp -r -p .ssh git.eclipse.org:
	cd ..
	rm -rf eclipse

Best regards, Uwe :)
