Overview

Request 737034 accepted

Version update to 8.1p1:
* ssh-keygen(1): when acting as a CA and signing certificates with
an RSA key, default to using the rsa-sha2-512 signature algorithm.
Certificates signed by RSA keys will therefore be incompatible
with OpenSSH versions prior to 7.2 unless the default is
overridden (using "ssh-keygen -t ssh-rsa -s ...").
* ssh(1): Allow %n to be expanded in ProxyCommand strings
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow prepending a list of algorithms to the
default set by starting the list with the '^' character, E.g.
"HostKeyAlgorithms ^ssh-ed25519"
* ssh-keygen(1): add an experimental lightweight signature and
verification ability. Signatures may be made using regular ssh keys
held on disk or stored in a ssh-agent and verified against an
authorized_keys-like list of allowed keys. Signatures embed a
namespace that prevents confusion and attacks between different
usage domains (e.g. files vs email).
* ssh-keygen(1): print key comment when extracting public key from a
private key.
* ssh-keygen(1): accept the verbose flag when searching for host keys
in known hosts (i.e. "ssh-keygen -vF host") to print the matching
host's random-art signature too.
* All: support PKCS8 as an optional format for storage of private
keys to disk. The OpenSSH native key format remains the default,
but PKCS8 is a superior format to PEM if interoperability with
non-OpenSSH software is required, as it may use a less insecure
key derivation function than PEM's.
- Additional changes from 8.0p1 release:
* scp(1): Add "-T" flag to disable client-side filtering of
server file list.
* sshd(8): Remove support for obsolete "host/port" syntax.

patch renames must be done in a way where you mention both old and new name in the changelog
