 No need for fsh or anything. Didn't this feature make it into portable 
 openssh ?

Yes, it did, but as usual with OpenSSH entirely without documentation
other than a changelog entry and silent change to the manpage describing
the extra options but not how to use them. As a result, I wasn't sure
how to use it for anything. Your example there is the first I've seen,
and is decidedly helpful: thanks!

 I don't think fsh is a good idea.  That could mean potentially hundreds

There would at most be one per user making commits to the depot.  Do
you really have hundreds of people making commits?  You probably have
hundreds of people pulling sources by anonymous read-only access but
that is a different path.

I will agree that the default timeout value for fsh is too long.  The
default is apparently ten hours unless changed.  For me personally 15
minutes is a good value and I would set the default on the server to
something short.
