uh hm how do I do clone a private repo on #plan9 using git/clone? I have the PAT handy, and expected something similar to using git on some other distro (lol) but that seems not the case.

I checked $ man git and saw nothing, but maybe I missed something?

Justine Smithies reshared this.

I guess I could just use a Deploy Key for this one repo or something?

@RooneyMcNibNug There is a way to do this, but it's been a hot minute since I touched Plan9. If memory serves, there's an additional tool that gets piped in to handle the authentication.

@RooneyMcNibNug Did a little more digging. I'm pretty sure the tool you want to look into is factotum

@me thanks! Had to step away for a while but that tracks at what others have said and the rabbit hole I was going down
