    <p>I'm wondering if anyone's managed to connect to a self-hosted Git repository on a Mediatemple GridServer (gs) via XCode? I tried setting this up last night, and this is as far as I've got:</p> <ol> <li>Installed Git on my Mac(s)</li> <li>Created subdomain for git (git.blahblah.com) on my gs service via Terminal SSH</li> <li>Created empty repository within subdomain (git.blahblah.com/repo/repo.git) via Terminal SSH</li> <li>Clicked on 'Connect to repo' from XCode's launch menu</li> <li>Entered repo address (ssh://git.blahblah.com:22/repo/repo.git) in XCode's address bar</li> <li>Clicked 'clone' once XCode has found the repo and is telling me that "Authentication [is] required"</li> <li>Chosen the appropriate local folder on my machine to clone the repo to</li> <li>Tried to enter username and password specified in MT admin panel - the same ones that I used via Terminal SSH to set up the repo in the first place</li> <li>Get booted with an error message: either 'incorrect username and password' (they're not) or 'specified address does not appear to be a repository, connection unexpectedly terminated by host' (or similar)</li> <li>Cry. Repeatedly.</li> </ol> <p>Getting to step 6 causes my IP to be blocked by MT, even if I'm logged into the web control panel from the same IP at the same time. Unblocking the IP via the MT control panel has no effect; the IP is blocked as soon as I try and connect via XCode again.</p> <p>I suspect it's actually step 4 that's causing problems as XCode is trying to 'ping' the repo without credentials as you type in the address (to resolve connectivity).</p> <p>Has anyone got this working, or do I need to look at hosting my Git repos elsewhere? I'd rather not spend more money on hosting when I have a service that should suit this purpose sitting unused.</p>
