Package: openssh-client Version: 1:4.6p1-5 Severity: wishlist I manage (part of) my home directory with the Git version control system, and share it across machines. One machine I want to use this home directory on runs Debian Sarge, with an old OpenSSH, which complains about unknown options in my .ssh/config (ControlPath and HashKnownHosts) and exits. While obviously the version of OpenSSH in Debian Sarge will never work with this configuration, could future versions of OpenSSH offer some way to not complain and exit when encountering unknown config options?
