Using gclient sync with private github repositories

[Ravi Kasibhatla]

Hi,

For a private project based on chromium, I am trying to add a private repository dependency in the DEPS - to be fetched during gclient sync phase.

Being private repo, the user needs to authenticate for cloning start. However, "gclient sync" doesn't stop for authentication and the script fails.

Is there any way for me to get around this issue? Please suggest.

Regards,

Ravi Kasibhatla.

I suspect that the simplest solution would be to use ssh git/github URLs
(and not https URLs), and if your local username is different to your
github username then add a Hosts rule in ~/.ssh/config that sets the
User for that Host to your github username.

Then you can use ssh-agent/keychain or similar to login using your
github ssh key.

Does "gclient sync -j1" work?
