kdesrc-build can ensure that KDE developers that use SSH to access the KDE source repository do not accidentally forget to leave the SSH Agent tool enabled. This can cause kdesrc-build to hang indefinitely waiting for the developer to type in their SSH password, so by default kdesrc-build will check if the Agent is running before performing source updates.

You may wish to disable the SSH Agent check, in case of situations where kdesrc-build is mis-detecting the presence of an agent. To disable the agent check, set the disable-agent-check option to true.

  disable-agent-check true
