DESCRIPTION
ssh-add adds RSA or DSA identities to the authentication agent,
ssh-agent(1). When run without arguments, it adds the files
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa, ~/.ssh/id_dsa and ~/.ssh/identity. Alternative file names
- can be given on the command line. If any file requires a passphrase,
- ssh-add asks for the passphrase from the user. The passphrase is read
- from the user's tty. ssh-add retries the last passphrase if multiple
- identity files are given.
+ ~/.ssh/id_rsa, ~/.ssh/id_dsa and ~/.ssh/identity. After loading a pri-
+ vate key, ssh-add will try to load corresponding certificate information
+ from the filename obtained by appending -cert.pub to the name of the pri-
+ vate key file. Alternative file names can be given on the command line.

+ If any file requires a passphrase, ssh-add asks for the passphrase from

+ the last passphrase if multiple identity files are given.
The authentication agent must be running and the SSH_AUTH_SOCK environ-
ment variable must contain the name of its socket for ssh-add to work.
