Another trick I use to improve round trip time of git operations is to use an ssh control path, see ControlMaster in man 5 ssh_config. In my ~/.ssh/config I have: Host gcc.gnu.org User redi Protocol 2 ForwardX11 no ForwardAgent no Compression yes # instead of ControlMaster=auto you can open a master connection with ssh -M -N -f r...@gcc.gnu.org ControlMaster auto # OpenSSH 5.6 and later: ControlPersist yes ControlPath /tmp/ssh_%h This keeps a persistent connection open to the server which gets reused every time I connect over ssh. The downside is that sometimes after a network change the control path gets stuck and needs to be manually closed with 'ssh -O exit gcc.gnu.org' (it will get automatically recreated by the next ssh connection or git fetch/push).
