Hi,
Since the new version of OpenSSH deprecated the rsa key does Gitolite planning to support ed25519 and ecdsa key type?


Let me know if you have any input or roadmap for this.

Thanks,
Tom

to tlee, gitolite
ed25519 etc are supported since 2015 (thanks to Robin Johnson of
the Gentoo project); see commit d500cb7d and nearby commits.

Maybe you've misread the relnotes. They didn't deprecate RSA keys, but
the SHA1 based ssh-rsa key signature type in favour of the more secure
rsa-sha2-256 and rsa-sha2-512 key signatures.

Bye...
