So I have been using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) for a while now (specifically, the “Microsoft’ed” version of Ubuntu 18.04).
Recently, I have had to use my local desktop to handle some git stuff, and I decided to do so within WSL. First up, I ran headlong into access problems – I run PuTTY Pageant and did not want to explicitly run ssh-agent inside WSL, not to mention maintaining a duplicate of my private keys in the WSL environment(s).
Well, agent forwarding was made for a reason, so I immediately set off to find a solution.
