But then every user would have to make that ssh config change on each
machine that they want to be able to push-build from.  I think its
better to just implement the keepalive in git-build-kernel itself.

It could be implemented as a silent keepalive instead (by just emitting
e.g. "\r" every couple minutes) but it now that I've implemented it, I
find the displayed elapsed build-time plus load average status to be
quite handy.
