Added warning about the insecurity of git:// #1840

Closed Volker-Weissmann closed 1 year ago

Changes

Cloning using git:// and running the cloned code is bad if e.g. you are in a public wifi. Many people don't know that, (including me a few years ago), so I put that in the documentation.

I contacted the github support for you and this was their response:

Hi Volker-Weissmann,

Thanks for writing in!

It's likely that an email notification was forwarded to the email address from an external mailing list or email address, which is linked to a different GitHub account.

Please check the X-GitHub-Recipient and X-GitHub-Recipient-Address headers of one of those emails

If that doesn't seem to be the case, please attach the raw version of one of the troublesome notification emails (including all its headers), and we'll be happy to look into it.

Cheers, Rocky
