git clone does not work with lshell

lshell is a shell coded in Python, that lets you restrict a user's environment to limited sets of commands, choose to enable/disable any command over SSH (e.g. SCP, SFTP, rsync, etc.), log user's commands, implement timing restriction, and more.

git clone does not work with lshell #175

I have git and ssh in my list of allowed commands but still a git clone does not work with lshell. Here is the ouput:

git clone git@github.com:jimsalterjrs/sanoid.git
Cloning into 'sanoid'...
fatal: cannot exec 'ssh': Permission denied
fatal: unable to fork
