Description
Description
I found docker/cli/pull/2541 but that doesn't extend to the cli, just the docker/cli module.
My use case is that the hard-coded
ConnectTimeout=30
is too short.
Alternatively, respecting connection flags in the user's .ssh/config file would suffice.

Research direction
Start by comparing the Docker CLI's SSH connection handling with docker/cli/pull/2541, focusing on where the hard-coded ConnectTimeout=30 is applied. Determine how CLI SSH options or the user's .ssh/config should be passed through, and verify that a longer connection timeout can be configured without changing the default behavior.
