run-unit-test-docker.sh: Enable SSH support
There is a need to clone repository via SSH.
When I run script with EXTRA_DOCKER_RUN_ARGS="-v /home/user/.gitconfig:/home/user/.gitconfig -v /home/user/.ssh:/home/user/.ssh",
I have this error message:
/bin/sh: 1: exec: socat: not found
Connection closed by UNKNOWN port 65535
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Can I add some EXTRA_DOCKER_RUN_ARGS to install socat?

We can add socat to the container directly if it is necessary for running git-over-ssh? But ... what is socat being used for in this context? I don't have socat installed on my development box and use git-over-ssh all the time.
I do see some code in build-setup.sh that is leveraging socat for HTTP proxying, but that's slightly surprising to me because git also has the http.proxy config option.
Hi @williamspatrick,
Thank you for your quick response. We are using socat in the SSH configuration according to our company guide.
Could you please add socat to the container?
@ewalkusx Is this something you can contribute (via Gerrit). It sounds like you have more context on what the utility of this is.
