man page doesnt say how to set a timeout for connecting... ok, it's on
the ssh_config(5) man page, but still, a command line option to do it is
missing. Compare wget.

Duplicate of part of #195642, fixed upstream in OpenSSH 3.9.
This also effectively closes #195642 proper, since the reference in
ssh(1) is now correct and points you to ssh_config(5) for more details.
If you really want a command-line option other than -o, then you'll have
to petition upstream directly for one, but note that there are only so
many characters left! I think -o suffices here.
Cheers,
