Sorry, something went wrong.
This implements a feature a few customers have already implemented internally. They rely on mTLS to avoid the need of distributing access tokens per user / oauth. This proxy uses the email field of a request and then sets the appropriate headers on the request for sourcegraph to authenticate it. In particular we rely on the site-admin:sudo scope which allows user impersonation. This feature is still experimental so is not shown in the -help output.
