Hi, I'm currently following your doc to setup my environment. Should this be changed to "chmod 600 ~/.ssh/ && chmod 744 ~/.ssh/config" to ensure the config file remains readable?

Thank you so much.

0744 would imply executable, which we definitely don't want. Do you mean 0644?

Is there something that needs it to be group- or world- readable?
