which dput/method to chose for automatic uploads via cron?

[Harald Dunkel <harald.dunkel@aixigo.com>]

Hi folks,

which dput/method would you suggest for uploading packages to
a private repo via ssh? By now I tried

- dput/rsync	fails to upload files in a reproducible sequence,
		breaking inoticoming on the receiver side
- dput/scp	"permission denied", ssh_config_options appear
		to be ignored
- dput/sftp	doesn't exist
- dput-ng/scp	ignores ssh_config_options
- dput-ng/sftp	works fine on the command line, but dies with
		"Failed to auth" in cron scripts.
- dput-ng/rsync	doesn't exist

I have to use a dedicated key pair for dput via ssh, ie.

	IdentityFile=~/.ssh/id/id_ecdsa.debian
	IdentitiesOnly=yes

are mandatory.

Every helpful comment is highly appreciated.
