By using deploy keys, you don't have to setup a +dummy user account. + +If you are a project master or owner, you can add a deploy key in the +project settings under the section 'Deploy Keys'. Press the 'New Deploy +Key' button and upload a public SSH key. After this, the machine that uses +the corresponding private key has read-only access to the project. + +You can't add the same deploy key twice with the 'New Deploy Key' option. +If you want to add the same key to another project, please enable it in the +list that says 'Deploy keys from projects available to you'. All the deploy +keys of all the projects you have access to are available. This project +access can happen through being a direct member of the project, or through +a group. See `def accessible_deploy_keys` in `app/models/user.rb` for more +information. + +Deploy keys can be shared between projects, you just need to add them to each project. |
