Private repos & auth

After some more tinkering and going back to HTTP Basic Auth, I figured
out a robust and, IMHO, elegant way to solve my requirements. It may not
be the right approach for all because it relies on features of the h2o
web server. But since I recently switched to it anyhow, it fully
integrates in my personal setup (btw, h2o is a fresh breeze after years
of Apache configuration struggling and its performance is outstanding -
you might want to give it a try)
