Do you have any suggestions to bypass this block for git? I have access
to Linux shell account (no root access, though) which doesn't have
problems with repo.or.cz, so I think I could set up SSH tunnel: but
how? And what to do with access via git:// - move to SSH too?
See man ssh, look for -L. It works for arbitrary ports, so you can redirect
git:// port to anywhere. Same for push over ssh, just give another port when
connecting.
Currently I have the folowing in my ~/.ssh/config:
# TP S.A. blocks repo.or.cz
Host repo.or.cz
NoHostAuthenticationForLocalhost yes
HostName localhost
Port 2222
and I can simply use "git push repo" without any changes.
But I have to run
$ ssh -f -N -L 2222:repo.or.cz:22 jnareb@host.example.com
first. Is there any way to automate this?
Something like the following should do the trick:
Host repo.or.cz
ProxyCommand ssh jnareb@host.example.com nc %h %p
You will need nc (netcat) installed on the host.example.com server, though.
