The agent requirement is a symptom of a deeper potential issue: not using the system's ssh. Providing built-in as a fast-path option is fine, but ~/.ssh/config can do a lot of useful things, and providing an easy option to say "just use real ssh" lets people have their config just work.

Specifying identify files for specific hosts, using bastion hosts (ProxyJump), etc. For example, my laptop SSH config detects when I'm not on my university network or VPN and adds a ProxyJump through the department bastion host, but connects directly when I'm on the network. Configurations like that break when software makes too many assumptions about how ssh is configured.

oh wow, how can your ssh config change based on the network you're using?

ssh_config allows several ways to execute arbitrary shell commands, such as "Match exec" and "ProxyCommand". Specify a program that can detect networks and choose different connections. Then the config file itself wouldn't change.

If you want (4) and don't care about a web interface for managing repos, but do want Git-LFS, Soft Serve (https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/) works pretty well. I used it for self-hosted stuff until I started needing other features Forgejo offers.

Or just push to an S3 bucket with `gitsocial mirror `

Kraid is the shader compiler for Panfrost, the Mesa driver for Arm Mali GPUs: https://docs.mesa3d.org/drivers/panfrost.html

So Panfrost is an OpenGL ES implementation for Mali-type GPUs then? Thank you for that. Still confused about the role of a compiler here because I'm uninformed. So Kraid is a GLSL compiler that is specific to those GPUs? Neat.
