git-annex/doc/bugs/ssh-options_seems_to_be_ignored.mdwn
Joey Hess 15107d2c5a propigate ssh-options everywhere ssh caching is used
* sync: Use the ssh-options git config when doing git pull and push.
* remotedaemon: Use the ssh-options git config.

Note that the rename env var means that if a new git-annex calls an old one
for git-annex ssh, or a new calls an old, nothing much will go wrong;
just ssh caching won't happen.

### Please describe the problem.
The docs say I can set ssh options via `annex.ssh-options` or `remote.NAME.annex-ssh-options`. I tried, and the setting appears to be completely ignored.
Apologies in advance if I've made a stupid typo.
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
I tried all of these:
git config --local --replace-all annex.ssh-options "-i ~/.ssh/id_git_rsa"
git config --local --replace-all remote.Watt.annex-ssh-options "-i ~/.ssh/id_git_rsa"
`git config -l | grep Watt` confirms it took:
remote.Watt.url=ssh://watt.home/home/anthony/Music/
remote.Watt.fetch=+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/Watt/*
remote.Watt.annex-uuid=e74b57e5-e78c-4f3d-bde6-4803a0c33837
remote.Watt.annex-ssh-options=-i ~/.ssh/id_git_rsa
Then I ran `git annex sync Watt`, and was prompted for a password:
anthony@Forest:~/Music$ git annex sync Watt
commit ok
pull Watt
Password:
Running `ps ww $(pidof ssh)` shows that the `-i` option is missing:
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
