New submission from Georg Neis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Hello,

I'm using the following ssh configuration:

  ControlMaster auto
  ControlPath ~/.ssh/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:%p

Unfortunately, it seems that darcs doesn't care if there's already an
existing ControlMaster that it could use: it always creates a new one in
/tmp/darcs-ssh, which will require me typing the password.  I can work
around this by using --disable-ssh-cm, but darcs really should be smart
enough to figure this out by itself.

Currently, darcs runs ssh -O invalid_command to test wether ssh supports
the control feature at all.  Maybe it can instead run 'ssh -O check
<host>' to check wether there is a suitable master process running.

Best regards,
Georg
