addkey
======
A simple set of scripts for facilitating SSH key management. Collectively, the result is to always have a single active instance of ssh-agent across shell instances, with the ability to easily add more keys by name.
## Installation
Source `ssh-agent-setup.sh` in your shell's config, and add `addkey` to your path.
Note that you need to have OpenSSH installed, since this uses `ssh-agent`.
## Usage
Assuming that `ssh-agent` is running (which it should be if `ssh-agent-setup.sh` was sourced correctly), use `addkey` to add keys from `~/.ssh` to the agent:
```
addkey github
```
This will attempt to add `~/.ssh/github` to the agent, prompting for a passphrase if necessary. Optionally:
```
addkey github 3600
```
Adds the key with a lifetime of 3600 seconds, or 1 hour.
