Speed Up Ssh & Git With This Weird Trick
This trick helps me saving quite some time when using ssh and git.
I found this on Peter Piekarczyk medium blog.
The difference is quite impressive.
If you’re not using an ssh config file, check out this awesome video explaining the advantages of having one:
# symlink to ~/.ssh/config Host github.com ControlMaster auto ControlPersist 120 Host * # Always use SSH2. Protocol 2 # Use a shared channel for all sessions to the same host, # instead of always opening a new one. This leads to much # quicker connection times. ControlMaster auto ControlPath ~/.ssh/control/%r@%h:%p ControlPersist 1800 # also this stuff Compression yes TCPKeepAlive yes ServerAliveInterval 20 ServerAliveCountMax 10
Using the SSH Config File

Otherwise, just place this in your ~/.ssh/config
and create a ~/.ssh/control
folder.
