Add support for specific SSH identity files #2

Closed cjohansson closed 8 years ago

It should be easy to implement SSH identity files just by adding the -i parameter to scp. However must check how this supported by tramp.

TRAMP seems to lack the ability for specific identity files, it can use them if configured outside emacs in the local filesystem with ~/.ssh/config or ssh_add. So we should add this feature but it will only affect the scp command not the TRAMP ediff command or ztree-diff command.

There was no need to fix this since it's better to setup SSH with custom identity-files using ~/.ssh/config
