SSH key handling
################
pmbootstrap can copy SSH keys to the device during the install step.
If the config file option `ssh_keys` is set to `True` (it defaults to `False`),
then all files matching the glob `~/.ssh/*.pub` will be placed in
`~/.ssh/authorized_keys` in the user's home directory in newly-built images.
Sometimes, for example if you have a large number of SSH keys, you may wish to
select a different set of public keys to include in an image. To do this, set
the `ssh_key_glob` configuration parameter in the pmbootstrap config file to a
string containing a glob that is to match the file or files you wish to
include.
For example, a `~/.config/pmbootstrap_v3.cfg` may contain:
.. code-block:: shell
[pmbootstrap]
# ...
ssh_keys = True
ssh_key_glob = ~/.ssh/postmarketos-dev.pub
# ...
