[Bug 1766] ssh should provide the current session configuration to subprocesses it invokes (via the environment?)
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1766 Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED CC| |djm at mindrot.org Resolution|--- |WONTFIX --- Comment #1 from Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> --- ssh has for a few years had the ability to query the configuration file after evaluation of Host and Match options. E.g "ssh -G user at host" will dump the configuration to stdout. Via this, I think it's possible for the subprocesses to get a reasonable picture of the active configuration without formatting a ton of stuff into the processes' environments. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching someone on the CC list of the bug.
