[Bug 2229] New: ssh adds and offers private key twice in certain constellations

https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2229

            Bug ID: 2229
           Summary: ssh adds and offers private key twice in certain
                    constellations
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 6.6p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: ssh
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: m.bunkus at linet-services.de

My ssh offers one and the same private key twice if I connect to a host
which has a HostName entry in ssh's config. Using this stripped-down
configuration:

Host *
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/key-mbunkus
  IdentitiesOnly yes

Host renegade renegade.bs.linet-services.de
  User grpadmin
  HostName renegade.bs.linet-services.de

Then I run ssh:

grpadmin at renegade.bs.linet-services.de's password:

In my real-life configuration I actually have three identities listed.
If each is used twice then this easily exhausts the number of tries,
and I cannot try password authentication if the server only allows six
tries.

This does not happen if the perceived/final host name equals the one
given on the command line. Meaning "ssh -F ~/.ssh/conf2 -a -v
renegade.bs.linet-services.de" is OK and looks like this:

[0 mbunkus at chai-latte ~] ssh -F ~/.ssh/conf2 -a -v

Note that the SSH agent is not in use: I've explicitly "unset
SSH_AGENT_PID" before doing these tests.

--- Comment #1 from Moritz Bunkus <m.bunkus at linet-services.de> ---
?and I meant SSH_AUTH_SOCK instead of SSH_AGENT_PID. Sorry for that.

avoid adding identity files twice

This is fallout from the configuration reparsing changes in 6.6p1.

We should probably avoid adding identities that are already in the list
