Hi, this was tested against Coder v0.23.7+a903d7c. I am trying to automate verification that user's have added their Coder SSH public key to different hosts. If you run coder gitssh you'll get the following output.

coder gitssh
usage: ssh [-46AaCfGgKkMNnqsTtVvXxYy] [-B bind_interface]
           [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-D [bind_address:]port]
           [-E log_file] [-e escape_char] [-F configfile] [-I pkcs11]
           [-i identity_file] [-J [user@]host[:port]] [-L address]
           [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-O ctl_cmd] [-o option] [-p port]
           [-Q query_option] [-R address] [-S ctl_path] [-W host:port]
           [-w local_tun[:remote_tun]] destination [command]

Coder authenticates with  git  using the public key below. All clones with SSH  
are authenticated automatically 🪄.                                             

 ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIJX6eMUWpPlBlSHp5JQsUeEO7MqGUTKE0LHqI2yxFGnW 

Add to GitHub and GitLab:
> https://github.com/settings/ssh/new
> https://gitlab.com/-/profile/keys

exit status 255

While testing, I tried using some of the command line options and all of them seem to give me an error.

eg:

coder gitssh -i ~/.ssh/test_key git@github.com
parsing flags ([gitssh -i /home/coder/.ssh/test_key git@github.com]) for "coder gitssh": unknown shorthand flag: 'i' in -i

It seems these option are either not available or I'm not specifying them properly.

Just FYI, this is not blocking me, I found a workaround where I do not need to use the extra options.
