Git SSH through docker sidecar? (midwest.social)

Hey all!

I'm trying to ssh into my tailnet-hosted (through tailscale serve) gogs instance and I can't seem to figure out how. Has anyone tried doing this? Will I need to add a user to the sidecar container and add a shim like they do in the regular gogs setup? I appreciate any insight.

Ope, I should have mentioned that gogs is a git server so by ssh access I mean for git stuff like clone and push.

The non-tailscale install relies on a shim script (which does use docker exec) and softlinking the host git user's .ssh file to inside the container, but that won't work going through the sidecar. The only way forward I can see is building my own tailscale sidecar with a git user and moving the shim script to it but I wanted to see if the community had any insight before I committed to that.

Oh for sure wait for someone more knowledgeable to respond then/do your own thing. I've not yet gotten much into anything with git since I'm pretty new to all of this. Sorry for the out of place advice!

No worries! I'm just getting into both of these and regretting not doing it sooner, reconfiguring your workflow is a pain lol.
