Function quote_path_for_ssh_config 

pub fn quote_path_for_ssh_config(path: &Path) -> String

Quote a filesystem path for embedding in an SSH-style config file.

On Windows, backslashes are converted to forward slashes — this is required by OpenSSH’s config parser and by Git credential helper entries, which also use the same forward-slash convention.

Paths containing spaces are wrapped in double quotes.

⚠ Not suitable for all config formats

This function normalises Windows backslashes to forward slashes. Do not use it for formats that require backslash-escaped paths (e.g. the AWS credential_process INI directive). Use quote_credential_process_arg for those.

Usage

use hardware_enclave::shell::quote_path_for_ssh_config;
use std::path::Path;

let line = format!("IdentityFile {}", quote_path_for_ssh_config(Path::new("/home/user/.ssh/id")));
