How complete is the ssh implementation? I'm thinking I probably want to at least run git/hg push, and maybe even do port forwarding.

  Not very. You can scp and rsync over it. You can run with or without a pty. That's pretty much it. It should work with git! You probably shouldn't do port forwarding on Fly.io; if you're running into an actual need for that, we should talk about extending our network access control model.

    Perhaps atypical, but about 50% of my ssh use is port forwarding to construct impoverished man's VPNs. Like I send mail by forwarding localhost:25 to localhost:25 on the mail server. If I were running PoE (Postgres on Edge) I'd probably want to connect a local client for poking around, but without the bother of meshing my laptop into the cloud.

      Most port forwarding you need to connect to Fly apps is baked in. Here's how to get at a remote postgres: $ flyctl proxy 15432:5432 -s -a fizz-db ? Select instance: [Use arrows to move, type to filter] > gru.fizz-db.internal iad.fizz-db.internal lax.fizz-db.internal lhr.fizz-db.internal ord (fdaa:0:446b:a7b:20db:0:77a5:2) ord (fdaa:0:446b:a7b:20dc:0:784c:2) yyz.fizz-db.internal That forwards whichever you select to local port 15432.
