# "ocp" can be anything, for convenience replace with your cluster's base fqdn

It could be nice if virtctl ssh could also read stdin/stdout so this configuration could be more obvious. eg.

Host *.ocp
  ProxyCommand virtctl ssh %r@%h --stdio=true

Even better if stdio=true was the default.

Right now this works tar cf - files | virtctl ssh cloud-user@vm -c 'tar xf -', but it would be wonderful if virtctl ssh behaved more like ssh and the -c could be omitted.

@dlbewley a neat idea. Is this something you could provide a PR for?
