I don't know if it fits your use case, but there is also tramp-remote-process-environment which can be used to set environment variables on (all) remotes. I used that for setting GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL, etc. where having it set on all remotes is benign (in my case); if you need to confine some information to some remote, this may not be ap- propriate. Tim
