Git push about dagger

[shykes]

In case it's useful, I recently started a new git module. It doesn't support push, but has a clean and simple foundation to add it.

@shykes Sounds good!

What do you think would be the best way to implement authentication?

GitHub supports http+token auth, but SSH is probably still the most common way to authenticate with Git. CI systems (like GHA) probably work better with API tokens.

I would start simple, and add a []SSHKey field to the Repo state, with assorted WithSSHKey and WithSSHKeys to add them. then a Push() function that makes sure to write the ssh keys to the right place in the container, and calls git push. Start with passing the argument as-is. Then, iterate from there.

Would it make sense to add WithSSHKey to the Git object instead (or as well) so they can be used to clone private repos as well?

Yes that makes perfect sense.
