So that when certain CLI option is passed, Guix does this without substituting stdin/stdout/stderr file descriptors.Actually, I'm not even 100% sure the substitution is controlleddirectly by Guix — it might be in libgit which IIRC is used for cloninghere.
I think you might be on to something -- scouring the internet, libgit2 seems to be the culprit.
Anyway, this improvement would require digging deep into either Guix or libgit. That's why I called it hypothetical — because it is too muchwork to consider here :)Anyway, if you're inclined to work around the problem, you might want to experiment with the SSH_ASKPASS and SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE environmentvariables. So that you're asked to enter the password in a GUI. See `man ssh` for more info about these vars Happy Hacking! Wojtek
Thanks for your all your help. What I have now works, which, is sufficient for now (I hope).
A couple of things more I want to check, and that's it: I'm migrating to a full Guix system.
