git-remote-tor-annex1

Remote helper program to talk to git-annex over tor

Usage

git fetch tor-annex::address.onion:port

git remote add tor tor-annex::address.onion:port

Overview

This is a git remote helper program that allows git to pull and push over tor(1), communicating with a tor hidden service.

The tor hidden service probably requires an authtoken to use it. The authtoken can be provided in the environment variable GIT_ANNEX_P2P_AUTHTOKEN. Or, if there is a file in .git/annex/creds/ matching the onion address of the hidden service, its first line is used as the authtoken.
