Support ~ as the user's home directory in Include directives, matching the behavior described in ssh_config(5). Thanks to Neil Williams for the report (#31).
Strip surrounding double quotes from parsed values. OpenSSH allows values like IdentityFile "/path/to/file", but Get/GetAll previously returned the quotes as literal characters. Quotes are now stripped from the returned value while preserving the original text for faithful roundtripping via String() and MarshalText(). Thanks to Furkan Türkal for the report (#61).
Default to a space before # in end-of-line comments. When a Host or KV is created programmatically with an EOLComment, the output previously had no space before the # (e.g. Host foo#comment). A single space is now inserted by default. Thanks to Yonghui Cheng for the report (#50).
Implement Match support. Most of the Match spec is implemented, including Match host, Match originalhost, Match user, Match localuser, and Match all. Match exec is not yet implemented.
Add SECURITY.md
Add Dependabot configuration
Add go.mod file (although this project has no dependencies).
config: add UserSettings.ConfigFinder
Various updates to CI and build environment
config: add DecodeBytes to directly read a byte array.
Strip trailing whitespace from Host declarations and key/value pairs. Previously, if a Host declaration or a value had trailing whitespace, that whitespace would have been included as part of the value. This led to unexpected consequences. For example:
Host example # A comment
HostName example.com # Another comment
Prior to version 1.2, the value for Host would have been "example " and the value for HostName would have been "example.com ". Both of these are unintuitive.
Instead, we strip the trailing whitespace in the configuration, which leads to more intuitive behavior.
