+Spent the day testing the sshpasswd branch. A few interesting things:
+
+* I was able to get rid of 10 lines of Windows specific code for
+  rsync.net, which had been necessary for console ssh password prompting to
+  work. Yay!
+* git-remote-gcrypt turned out to be broken when there is no controlling
+  tty. --no-tty has to be passed to gpg to avoid it falling over in this
+  case, even when a gpg agent is available to be used. I fixed this with
+  a new release of git-remote-gcrypt.
+
+Mostly the new branch just worked! And is merged...
+
+Merged a patch from Robie Basak that adds a new special remote that's sort
+of like bup but supports deletion: [[special_remotes/ddar]]

+Backlog: 172

+Today's work was sponsored by Andrew Cant.
