[Bug 3688] New: Automatically create Host alias
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3688 Bug ID: 3688 Summary: Automatically create Host alias Product: Portable OpenSSH Version: 9.7p1 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 Component: ssh Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org Reporter: moritz.widmann at mail.ch Defining aliases is currently a somewhat tedious manual process. You have to add a `Host` entry to your ssh config file manually. That's why I want to propose the addition of two new optional parameters, something like this: -z alias Adds a new Host entry to the ssh config file with the alias as the name, with the given host, user and/or port. If the alias already exists, it will be overwritten. -Z alias Does the same as -z, but does not connect. This way you can either execute the actual ssh command and set the alias (with -z), or just set the alias, with (-Z). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.

[Bug 3688] Automatically create Host alias

This seems like a better job for a shell script, rather than adding it to ssh. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching someone on the CC list of the bug.
