AsyncSSH 1.15.0 released!

[Ron Frederick]

AsyncSSH version 1.15.0 is now available on Github and PyPI, with minor bug fixes and enhancements. Here’s a list of changes since 1.14.0:

Release 1.15.0 (26 Nov 2018)
----------------------------

* Added the ability to pass keyword arguments provided in the scp()
command through to asyncssh.connect() calls it makes, allowing
things like custom credentials to be specified.

* Added support for a reuse_port argument in create_server(). If
set, this will be passed to the asyncio loop.create_server() call
which creates listening sockets.

* Added support for "soft" EOF when line editing in enabled so that
EOF can be signalled multiple times on a channel. When Ctrl-D is
received on a channel with line editing enabled, EOF is returned
to the application but the channel remains open and capable of
accepting more input, allowing an interactive shell to process
the EOF for one command but still accept input for subsequent
commands.

* Added support for the Windows 10 OpenSSH ssh-agent. Thanks go to
SamP20 for providing an initial proof of concept and a suggested
implementation.

* Reworked scoped link-local IPv6 address normalization to work
better on Linux systems.

* Fixed a problem preserving directory structure in recursive scp().

* Fixed SFTP chmod tests to avoid attempting to set the sticky bit on
a plain file, as this caused test failures on FreeBSD.

* Updated note in SSHClientChannel's send_signal() documentation to
reflect that OpenSSH 7.9 and later should now support processing
of signal messages.
