Hi, how do you run forgejo under a reverse proxy while using an ssh channel to pull/push commits?

From what I understand caddy is only able to proxy http traffic.

Not really through Caddy but for my setup I have it so the ssh port for Forgejo is only accessible through tailscale. So for push/pulling updated my ssh config file to something like

Host git.mysite.com HostName tailscaleMachineName User git Port 1234

Then doing git pull git@git.mysite.com:user/project.git works just fine as long as I am connected to tailscale

Otherwise you could open the port for Forgejo's ssh so that you can access it without any vpn

I feel silly for not realizing that the SSH config would be used by Git!

I thought if Forgejo's SSH service listened to a non-standard port that you would have to do commands with the port in the command similar to below (following your example). I guess I assumed Git did not directly use the client's SSH service.

git pull git@git.mysite.com:1234:user/project.git
