However, isn't that one much more limited access? I.e. for myself at least, it just prompts for a password (presumably for the SSH "git" user) which of course I don't have. Is there a reason why that's recommended or is it just a typo? If the latter, I'd be inclined to change it to the SSL (i.e. https) URL (which the FAQ recommends for clone/push and utilizes php.net credentials) to minimize confusion. --Kris
