Subject: [bug#36956] [PATCH] machine: Automatically authorize the coordinator's signing key.

From: [email-masked] (Jakob L. Kreuze)
Date: Wed, 07 Aug 2019 08:45:10 -0400

* guix/ssh.scm (remote-authorize-signing-key): New variable.
* gnu/machine/ssh.scm (deploy-managed-host): Authorize coordinator's
signing key before any invocations of 'remote-eval'.
* guix/scripts/deploy.scm (guix-deploy): Display an error if a signing
key does not exist.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix deploy): Remove section describing manual
signing key authorization.
