SSH Configuration

This directory contains SSH configuration files that will be symlinked to ~/.ssh/.

Setup

  1. Edit the config file to add your hosts and settings

  2. Run the symlinks task:

    ./eru.sh install symlinks

Why Symlinks?

While SSH can read configs from ~/.ssh/, we keep them in this repo under ~/.config/ssh/ and symlink them to:

  • Track SSH configuration in version control
  • Keep all configs organized under ~/.config/
  • Share configs across machines
  • Maintain consistent environment setup

Files

  • config: Main SSH client configuration

Security Notes

  • Never commit private keys (id_*, *.pem, etc.) to version control
  • The .gitignore excludes *.secret files
  • Keep sensitive configs in *.secret files (ignored by git)
  • SSH keys should remain in ~/.ssh/ (not symlinked)
  • Only configuration files should be symlinked, not keys

Removing macOS-specific Settings

If you're on Linux, remove or comment out these lines from your config:

  UseKeychain yes
