Package: sshfs
Version: 2.4-1
Severity: minor

When you need to use a particular identity file for PKC authentication, sshfs does not cope with the passed-through option including spaces. I have reported this on the fuse-sshfs mailing list:

https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=CAJfpegtgPrLBty0UJE-1DDKGsdPef_XxJVe7QSpS0yxFGJ9itw%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=fuse-sshfs

It would be useful to add a note to the manpage that you need to escape space-containing IdentityFile paths with single then double quotes, e.g.:


=======================================================================

sshfs -o IdentityFile='"<path to identity file with spaces"' user@host:"<path on remote server>" "<path on local server>"

=======================================================================

Thanks
