Document GIT_SSH environment variable alongside other variables
The GIT_SSH environment variable has survived for quite a while without being documented, but has been mentioned on list and on my day-job repositories can only be accessed via magic supplied through the wonderous hack that is GIT_SSH. Advertising it alongside other "low level magic" such as GIT_PAGER and GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY will certainly help others who need to spread their own pixie dust to make things work.

The 'GIT_SSH' command will be given exactly two arguments:

the 'username@host' (or just 'host') from the URL and the

shell command to execute on that remote system.

To pass options to the program that you want to list in GIT_SSH

you will need to wrap the program and options into a shell script,

then set GIT_SSH to refer to the shell script.

Usually it is easier to configure any desired options through your
