            Bug ID: 2383
           Summary: ssh-copy-id hangs when already connected with
                    connection sharing
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 6.8p1
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: ssh-copy-id

ssh-copy-id-connection-sharing-hang.patch

If I successfully ssh into somewhere and then try to use ssh-copy-id,
it just hangs.

I have this in my .ssh/config:
ControlMaster  auto
ControlPath    /dev/shm/ssh_control_%h_%p_%r
ControlPersist 3600

It's because of this line in ssh-copy-id:
REMOTE_VERSION=$(ssh -v -o PreferredAuthentications=',' "$@" 2>&1 |
                 sed -ne 's/.*remote software version //p')

Because of the connection sharing, this doesn't fail, but opens a shell
on the other side and waits for input indefinitely.

A simple fix is to add -o ControlPath=none.
