Hi,
You need to upload your SSH public key to Savannah. It is usually
located in ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub.
Then the system should be updated within one hour, and your public key
will be installed in your remote account, in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.
You will then be able to log in to Savannah for cvs usage using the
standard public key way; we suggest you use a passphrase for improved
security (if your private key is comprimise, the cracker will not be
able to use it without the passphrase).
