  This is by far is the best option, its still user based so it will take me where I want.

    Absolutely – I'd definitely recommend that this is used in favor of my utility if you're always going to the same directory. I originally wrote a util that outputs your current username, hostname, and path (https://github.com/christianbundy/whereami https://github.com/christianbundy/whereami) so that you can either share or save it somewhere, but since SSH doesn't handle file paths by default I made a utility that does. :)

      I think you've done an excellent job of pointing out that ssh should just be capable of doing this by default. Like many such things, it's obvious with hindsight. But somehow I never thought of it before.
