Script that executes ssh-add and feeds the passphrase automatically

bash, git, ssh

Solution

If you're going to do that you'd be better off just not using a passphrase on the key. In which case you wouldn't even need to use `ssh-agent`. You can change or remove a passphrase from an existing key with `ssh-keygen -p`.

Problem

I'm using a script that executes ``` eval `ssh-agent` ssh-add ``` which prompts you to input your SSH passphrase. Is it possible to input the passphrase from the script? The goal of this is to open connection to git repo whenever I open GitBash without having to constantly input my passphrase. I know putting passphrase in a script is terrible security, but I really don't care. I'm doing for testing.
