Configure OpenSSH runs multiple SSH sessions over a single connection

If you are on macOS and Linux, enable the ControlMaster feature on your local machine so that OpenSSH runs multiple SSH sessions over a single connection. This will reduce how often you have to enter a password or token.

To enable ControlMaster:

Add an entry like this to your SSH config file:

Host *

    ControlMaster auto

    ControlPath  ~/.ssh/%r@%h-%p

    ControlPersist  600
