Bug ID: 3128
Summary: Add option to show version of the executable
(ssh-keygen)
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 8.2p1
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: ssh-keygen
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
Reporter: p.bodnar at centrum.cz
I'm not sure if this is specific only to the `ssh-keygen`, but there
seems no way of easily finding out its version from command line.
Instead, one needs to check the version of the whole OpenSSH package.
Is it possible to introduce an option like `-version` or `--version`
which would show the program's version (and possibly other information
as well)? Most users are used to have such an option for many command
line tools.
