Description

This is an extension for the crate nresare/ssh-agent-client-rs.
It adds the implementation for windows git-bash.
The original dependency is re-exported.
Instead of adding dependency to ssh-agent-client-rs, add ssh_agent_client_rs_git_bash.
Instead of Client::connect(), use the method Client::connect_to_git_bash_or_linux() of the new trait:

# Cargo.toml
[dependencies]
ssh_agent_client_rs_git_bash = {git="https://github.com/bestia-dev/ssh_agent_client_rs_git_bash.git"}

use ssh_agent_client_rs_git_bash::Client;
// import trait to scope
use ssh_agent_client_rs_git_bash::GitBash;
let mut client = Client::connect_to_git_bash_or_linux(&path_ssh_auth_sock)
    .expect("Cannot connect to ssh-agent.");
// then normal code with Client
client.list-identities().unwrap;

Windows git-bash

The implementation of ssh-agent in git-bash works over Tcp socket and is supported by this client.
The rust target is x86_64-pc-windows-gnu and can be cross-compiled from Linux to Windows.
Windows git-bash environment has also other names: cygwin, msys2, mingW64, git-for-windows, ...

Windows has other not compatible ssh-agent implementations that are NOT supported by this client.

  • Microsoft ssh works over named pipes.
  • After 2019 Microsoft introduced Unix Sockets.
  • Old and obsolete msys or msysGit

Open-source and free as a beer
