Against SCRAM

I added support for the SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication mechanism to the Ergo IRC server, in response to demand for a reference implementation that clients could test against. Conversely, if you're implementing a server, I added an irctest server test covering it.

Nonetheless, this decision should not be taken as an endorsement of SCRAM. I recommend against implementing SCRAM-SHA-256 or any other SCRAM variant. Here's why.

The baseline: SASL PLAIN over TLS

Converting a gitlab export to simple git repo

• Initial credit to https://gist.github.com/maxivak/513191447d15c4d30953006d99928658

Gitlab exports a tar.gz file which contains a file called project.bundle. We can convert this file into a normal git repo using the following steps:

Extract the project.bundle file

$ tar xvfz GitLabExport.gz
