Running in non-verbose mode with "ssh -v"

[sergei-dyshel]

According to documentation and my observations:

Inspect parent process to determine log level (if you use ssh -vv, assh will automatically run in debug mode)

This is a nice feature but it doesn't work as expected when passing -E <logfile> option to ssh - all debug messages by ssh are redirected to but assh debug logs are still go to stderr.

I prefer assh logs go to specified logfile as well or not be printed at all. Is it possible to config? If not, where is the place in code where ssh command flags are observed and verbosity flag is extracted?

Answering my own questions:

• Parsing of parent (ssh) cmdline is done in LogLevelFromParentSSHProcess().
• It only detects v, vv, vvv so one can use -o LogLevel=DEBUG to "trick" assh.

Keeping this issue open for the case author wants to make a proper config option for it or support -E ssh option.
