Curious why you would just copy the entire gilderlabs/ssh package into your repo instead of referencing it as a module? How do you plan to keep up to date with bug / security fixes?
Some of the changes necessary were too invasive/breaking to gliderlabs/ssh, such as https://github.com/gliderlabs/ssh/pull/161 so making a copy ended up making more sense, I think. That's my understanding from what Mohammed's told me, anyways.
