+      The SSH agent is usually spawned by running eval $(ssh-agent), however this
+      spawns a new SSH agent at every invocation. This project provides an
+      ssh-agent wrapper called ssh-agents that is capable of spawning an SSH
+      agent and caching the environment variables for later invocation.
+
+      Features
+      - One SSH agent across all terminals
+      - Add all un-encrypted SSH keys to the agent upon spawning. Please note
+        that encrypted SSH keys can only be added via ssh-add after having
+        started the agent.
+      - Ability to have different keys in different agents for security purposes.
+      - Multiple SSH agents
+      - To use multi-SSH agents, start ssh agent with the --name flag. The
+        given name is expected to be a folder under ~/.ssh/name containing the
+        keys to include in the agent.
