Allow setting custom arguments for the `sftp` backend, by using the `sftp.args` option. This is similar to the approach already implemented in the `rclone` backend, to support new arguments without requiring future code changes for each different SSH argument. Closes #4241

Enhancement: Add config option to set SFTP command arguments
|
|
|
|
The `sftp.args` option can be passed to restic (using `-o`) to specify
|
|
custom arguments to be used by the SSH command executed by the SFTP
|
|
backend.
|
|
|
|
Before this change, a common scenario where a custom identity file was
|
|
needed for the SSH connection, required the full command to be
|
|
specified:
|
|
`-o sftp.command='ssh user@host:port -i /ssh/my_private_key -s sftp'`
|
|
|
|
With this new configuration option:
|
|
`-o sftp.args='-i /ssh/my_private_key'`
