I'm not sure if sourceforge supports it or not, but if they do, here's how you would do it: 1. Run ssh-keygen on the client. This will create a public/private key pair. If you don't want to enter a password, don't give one when you create the key pair. 2. Copy the public key (~/.ssh/identity.pub) to the sf server and put it in the file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys. That's it. If sf supports RSA authentication, you should not be prompted for a password. (You can double check this by running ssh with the -v option.)
