Supporting rfc4716 based SSH keys #1171

Open Skarlso opened 5 years ago

Skarlso commented 5 years ago

As of the time of this writing, most tools now default to https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4716 based SSH keys. Is it possible for go-git to support this format?

Go out of the box provides the fingerprint method of rfc4716, would it be possible to use that for authentication practices? Since the fingerprint is smaller, which is why it exists, it would also lighten the load of messages sent.

Thanks.
