git_authentication: replace andOTP by Aegis #330

Closed florisvdh closed 9 months ago

florisvdh commented 9 months ago

Description

andOTP is no longer maintained since 2022: https://xdaforums.com/t/unmaintained-app-4-4-open-source-andotp-open-source-two-factor-authentication-for-android.3636993/page-6#post-87021655

In the same forum thread, Aegis is recommended as open-source alternative. It is indeed actively maintained and I can testify that it works very well. Also, it can import the keys from andOTP.

Previewing the pull request

Thanks to GitHub Actions, an artifact (=zip file) of the rendered website is automatically created for each pull request. This provides a way to preview how these updates will look on the website, useful to contributors and reviewers.

Instructions to preview the updated website

1) On the PR page, you can find a "details" link under "checks - On PR, build the site and ...". Go there, click on the top link in the left sidebar ("Summary"), and download the generated artifact at the bottom of the page. 2) Decompress it and make sure the target directory is called 'tutorials' (you may need to rename it) 3) From the parent directory (just above the tutorials folder you created/renamed), run python -m http.server 8887, or launch the Google Chrome Web Server app and point it at the parent directory. 4) Point your browser to http://localhost:8887/tutorials. 5) Review the updated website. As a contributor, you can push extra commits to update the PR. As a reviewer, you can accept/refuse/comment the PR.

Note: for step 3, you can use any other simple HTTP server to serve the current directory if you don't have a Python 3 environment or Google Chrome available.
