SSH not allowed on some hosts #29

Not really an issue, more like a tip: I tried to use git-deploy on a host but failed because SSH was not accessible for the apache/php user, so git pull resulted in an error: fatal: could not spawn fork. I managed to get it working though, switching the remote to https, and applying git config credential.helper store. Note that this stores the credentials on disk, so make sure this applies to your use case.

Yeah you can use https as well without issue, but for private repositories, you'll need to find a way to insert credentials in to the URL. I know GitLab offers "Deploy Tokens" which effectively act as read-only, single-project accounts, but I'm not sure about GitHub or BitBucket.
