#93One safety tip: disable SSH Agent Forwarding before you connect, otherwise the remote server can theoretically reuse your private key to establish new connections to GitHub.com or prod servers (though this host is unlikely malicious). https://www.clockwork.com/insights/ssh-agent-hijacking/ (SSH Agent Hijacking)
