            Bug ID: 3004
           Summary: ssh-add does not honor IdentityAgent
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 7.9p1
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: ssh-add
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: rigarash at gmail.com

>From OpenSSH 7.3p1, ssh_config has an option IdentityAgent so that I
can unset SSH_AUTH_SOCK for invoking ssh with ssh-agent.

For example, if I have the following line, you don't have to set
SSH_AUTH_SOCK:

$ cat $HOME/.ssh/config
Host *
  IdentityAgent ~/.ssh/S.ssh-agent

However, ssh-add only looks for SSH_AUTH_SOCK. It would be nice for
ssh-add to honor config(s) of IdentityAgent.
