Hi,

some guy on the Cygwin mailing list found that ssh-copy-id chokes
on directories with spaces, which are quite common on Windows.

He also provided an easy fix, basically just adding quotes, which I
attached to this mail. Would that be ok to apply upstream?


Thanks,
Corinna

Done:

http://git.hands.com/ssh-copy-id

I've reported it as a (fixed) bug, and marked it as blocking V_7_3, so
it ought to make the next release:

https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2551

Thanks for reporting it.

Cheers, Phil.

Also applied to the main tree.

I've reported it as a (fixed) bug,
Please don't mark a bug fixed until it's applied to the main tree.
We're unlikely to look closely at marked-fixed bugs so if we miss the
email thread we might miss the bug.

Thanks all.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
