deploy.user param not working about middleman-deploy HOT 7 OPEN

I had the same issue. Setting deploy.host to user@hostname and leaving deploy.user unset fixes it for me.

Believe you are not passing it in your call

strategy_instance = strategy_class_name.constantize.new(self.server_instance.build_dir, self.options.remote, self.options.branch, self.options.commit_message)
For now , I have made custom user on my server with my own username I have locally.
but after typing the password just a blank screen.

Any help would be welcome, getting a Could not read from remote repository

A git deploy is run from the local machine using a local git command to a remote git repository. When you run the command in terminal, it's run using your local user.

The deploy user param is for a remote user on a remote server. This isn't used in git deploy as git deploy doesn't push the folders automatically to a server after committing to git. If you'd like to do that, I'd suggest looking into GitHub post-hooks.

This doesn't apply (make sense) if you're running your own git-server (not GitHub or a hosted Git service).

This issue seems to persist. I would need it as described for a deploy via rsync. The console just outputs:

## Deploying via rsync to SERVERNAME:/path/ port=22

Looking at rsync.rb it should also output the username, if I set one.

Any idea for a quick fix?

More background information: I'm using 2.0.0.pre.alpha and I also get Received disconnect from $IP: 2: Too many authentication failures for $WRONG_USERNAME.

I fixed my issue with this PR. But it is just for rsync, maybe the other methods will have the same problem.
