2010-08-11Straightened out some flaws in the behaviour.Moritz Beber
The idea is to have a single ssh-agent instance that holds all the keys. Checking and spawning of ssh-agents should be consistent now.
2010-08-11fixed bug with SSH_AGENT_PIDMoritz Beber
The variable SSH_AGENT_PID might still be set, so it should not be used for testing. Resorted to a ps test instead.
2010-08-11more careful ssh-agent startingMoritz Beber
I modified the script for automatic ssh-agent starting to only start a new agent if one isn't running already and to only add the keys from standard file locations only if the agent doesn't already contain any identities. The reasoning for me was that every time I open a new bash window or fire up 'screen', I would be asked for the passphrase.
