Git side bar - configuring git to connect to server (mac)

#1

Hi there,

I have installed git sidebar, and it looks great. However, I cant get it to work doing a test to pull from the repo I use.

Via terminal I use git fine with ssh keys, however git sidebar doesnt pick this up.

When trying to do the pull I got this error:

ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/libexec/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory

After a bit of searching I found this script:

github.com/markcarver/mac-ssh-askpass

and installed it - now pulling via sidebar git hangs for a while and then gives an error:

162:522: execution error: Sublime Text 2 got an error: AppleEvent timed out. (-1712)
Host key verification failed.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

So it looks like the script installed doesnt address the issue.

I cannot find any tutorials on getting git working form the side bar, but it would be really useful.

Could anyone point me in the right direction or provide any help?

Many thanks, Steve
