[Bug 3156] New: Prevent ~/.ssh creation
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3156

Bug ID: 3156
Summary: Prevent ~/.ssh creation
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 8.2p1
Hardware: amd64
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: ssh
Assignee: unassigned-bugs@mindrot.org
Reporter: alexandreprovencio@gmail.com

Hello Guys,
on my use case, i really don't need anything that is created on
`~/.ssh`, except for the `known_hosts` file.

I like the way the XDG specification works, so I tried changing the
value of UserKnownHostsFile to something like `~/.cache/known_hosts`
which works fine, but ssh still creates an empty `~/.ssh`.

Can it be avoided or is it really hardcoded?
