The problem
Using passphrases for SSH keys is a very good idea, but since UX is inherent part of security I would advise on adding your SSH key to the ssh-agent to prevent password re-type fatigue & mishaps.
The solution
Follow along the documents above or try this shortened version:
- Add following line to your
~/.zshrc
:
ssh-add --apple-use-keychain ~/.ssh/id_rsa 2> /dev/null
- Add following lines to yours
~/.ssh/config
:
Host *
UseKeychain yes
AddKeysToAgent yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
💖 💪 🙅 🚩
