This is an automated email from the git hooks/post-receive script. x2go pushed a change to branch bugfix/osx in repository x2goclient. from c143fe6 src/{unixhelper.cpp,x2goclient.cpp}: fix errno usage - save before use. new d292ca6 src/onmainwindow.cpp: document createRSAKey () because what it does is completely non-obvious. new 35240f5 src/onmainwindow.cpp: add support for explicitly setting the private key bit size based on type and use values (currently) regarded as secure to generateHostKey (). The 2 revisions listed above as "new" are entirely new to this repository and will be described in separate emails. The revisions listed as "adds" were already present in the repository and have only been added to this reference.
