ssh pinentry dialog unusable due to ssh-add exec timeout

[MartinLoeper]

What happened?

I am running ssh agent via gpg. As I found out in a provider repository, there is an issue with this setup as soon as the AddPrivateKeysToAgent(ctx context.Context, log log.Logger) error method is called. The method has a timeout of 2s by default which is not nearly enough to input a passphase for the ssh-add command.

I would like to provide a PR here, but I do not know what the best solution is.

What did you expect to happen instead?

I expect that devpod lets me input the information that ssh-add needs to add the key (e.g. pin for the gpg smartcard or ssh key passphrase). Currently, the dialog spawned by Gnome pinentry is just closed after the 2s timeout.

How can we reproduce the bug? (as minimally and precisely as possible)

• Install devpod
• Enable the ssh integration for gpg
• Run a provider which calls ExecuteCommand in the ssh package.

Local Environment:

• DevPod Version: v0.5.20
• Operating System: linux (NixOS)
• ARCH of the OS: AMD64

DevPod Provider:

• Cloud Provider: hetzner
• Kubernetes Provider: not applicable
• Local/remote provider: docker
• Custom provider: hetzner

Anything else we need to know?

Hey @MartinLoeper, thanks for opening this issue.
I am personally not familiar with pinentry so I've just added support for passphrase based SSH keys.
Is it possible for you to check out the linked PR and see if this also works for your setup before we merge it into main?
