[darcs-devel] [issue1324] docs: sshfs for pushing to darcsless server

[Trent Buck]

New submission from Trent Buck <trentbuck at gmail.com>:

22:03 <twb> gal_bolle: the way to get what you want is to use sshfs and DARCS_SLOPPY_LOCKS, which only requires that the server has an SFTP service -- it doesn't even require a full SSH shell.
22:03 <gal_bolle> is that documented somewhere?
22:03 <twb> And DARCS_SLOPPY_LOCKS is I believe only a workaround needed because older versions of sshfs didn't implement the lock syscall
22:03 <gal_bolle> it would be great for all my personal repos
22:04 <twb> http://bugs.darcs.net/issue904
22:04 <twb> http://bugs.darcs.net/issue554
22:04 <twb> http://bugs.darcs.net/issue1182
22:05 <twb> gal_bolle: PS: note that sshfs is significantly slower than transfer-mode.
22:05 <twb> gal_bolle: but it *does* work, at least.
22:05 <twb> I should probably document it better.
