Sören +kindly fixed it to work with Debian stable's old version of Yesod, +which was quite a lot of work. The new new bootstrap3 UI looks nice, +found a few minor issues, but expect to be able to merge it soon. + +Started on [[design/assistant/sshpassword]] groundwork. Added a simple +password cache to the assistant, with automatic expiration, and made +git-annex be able to be run by ssh as the `SSH_ASKPASS` program. + +The main difficulty will be changing the webapp's UI to prompt for the ssh +password when one is needed. There are several code paths in ssh remote +setup where a password might be needed. Since the cached password expires, +it may need to be prompted for at any of those points. Since a new page is +loading, it can't pop up a prompt on the current page; it needs to redirect +to a password prompt page and then redirect back to the action that needed +the password. ...At least, that's one way to do it. +I'm going to sleep on it and hope I dream up a better way. + +[[!meta date="Tue, 29 Apr 2014 18:33:53 -0400"]]
