ssh-copy-id [1] is a script to copy one's SSH keys to remote hosts, ensuring that ~/.ssh and authorized_keys are created with correct permissions. The script uses ssh(1) to log into a remote machine (using a login password).

This script is available in portable OpenSSH [2] and is installed on many (most?) Linux distributions, macOS, and from a different source [3], in FreeBSD.

Would ssh-copy-id from [1] likely be accepted as a port if I attempted to undertake the task?
