           Summary: ssh-copy-id has options that could be added to MAN
                    page
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 5.3p1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: tom at ritter.vg


After googling about using ssh-copy-id on a server running on a
nonstandard port, I learned that I could use

 $ ssh-copy-id '-p 1234 name at server' 

to pass the port option through to ssh.  This ability is not documented
on the man page, and I thought it was a normal use case and worth
putting in the documentation.
