Previously, the fact that "ssh-rsa" sometimes comes with two subtypes "rsa-sha2-256" and "rsa-sha2-512" was known to three different parts of the code - two in userauth and one in transport. Now the knowledge of what those ids are, which one goes with which signing flags, and which key types have subtypes at all, is centralised into a method of the key algorithm, and all those locations just query it. This will enable the introduction of further key algorithms that have a parallel upgrade system.
This is the README for PuTTY, a free Windows and Unix Telnet and SSH
client.
PuTTY is built using CMake <https://cmake.org/>. To compile in the
simplest way (on any of Linux, Windows or Mac), run these commands in
the source directory:
cmake .
cmake --build .
Documentation (in various formats including Windows Help and Unix
`man' pages) is built from the Halibut (`.but') files in the `doc'
subdirectory using `doc/Makefile'. If you aren't using one of our
source snapshots, you'll need to do this yourself. Halibut can be
found at <https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/halibut/>.
The PuTTY home web site is

If you want to send bug reports or feature requests, please read the
Feedback section of the web site before doing so. Sending one-line
reports saying `it doesn't work' will waste your time as much as
ours.
