I found that 100 bytes was too much for travis 1.6.9. Through experimentation I discovered that 90 bytes works, 95 doesn't, so I just stuck with --bytes=90
. I appreciate the updated gist.
Thanks for sharing this code!
The OS X version on Travis-CI.org doesn't understand that {00..30} should give 00 01 02..etc and just returns 0 1 2..etc
so the first 10 variables won't get printed to the file, and the key (obviously) doesn't work...
i solved it with a small for-loop combined with printf, also my version works the same on the linux and osx workers

In the example below,
~/.ssh/id_rsa_deploy
is a deployment key that was added to my repositoryfloydpink/harimenon.com
. Change these two strings to appropriate values.
