#Git Configuration

Git is commonly used to bring source code into the sandbox or commit generated changes.

#Public Repositories

Clone public repositories directly:

git clone https://github.com/user/repo.git /home/gem/repo

For faster startup, bake stable repositories into a custom image:

FROM ghcr.io/agent-infra/sandbox:latest
RUN git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/user/repo.git /home/gem/repo

#Private Repositories

For private repositories, prefer runtime credentials instead of baking secrets into images:

docker run --security-opt seccomp=unconfined --rm -it \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  -e GIT_ASKPASS=/home/gem/git-askpass.sh \
  ghcr.io/agent-infra/sandbox:latest

You can also mount SSH keys or token files for a single task, then remove them when the task is complete.

#Recommended Settings

git config --global user.name "AIO Sandbox"
git config --global user.email "sandbox@example.com"
git config --global init.defaultBranch main

#Security

• Never commit secrets into the repository.
• Avoid adding private keys to custom image layers.
• Prefer short-lived tokens for one-off tasks.
• Review generated diffs before pushing changes.
