Yes, the way you have it now, the machine is trying to ssh into itself,
that's where the host key verification is coming from. See
`:local_repository` at
https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano/wiki/2.x-Significant-Configuration-Variables

Understood, that's typical of starting-up people!

Sure, `cap deploy:setup` should really "set up" the host key, too, but it
doesn't yet. `deploy:setup` just verifies all the parts between your
workstation and the server you are deploying to.

No, it would need it's *own* host key in the known_hosts file.. see the
note above about :local_repository, so you can see how to have your
workstation access the server first, and then the server not have to loop
back into itself.
