the command is always reported as changed

[JanMalte]

using this great command to set up .ssh/config is always reporting as changed to ansible. It should only report as changed, if the file was changed.

@JanMalte could you please share the command you're using? a little easier to debug from that :)

Did you get anywhere with this? I'm currently experiencing the same issue with the below config:

- name: Add deploy keys to ssh config
  ssh_config:
    user: "{{ ansible_user }}"
    host: "{{ item.host }}"
    hostname: github.com
    identity_file: "~/.ssh/{{ item.identity_file }}"
    strict_host_key_checking: true
    state: present
  with_items:
    - host: repo1.github.com
      identity_file: repo1_deploy.github.id_rsa
    - host: repo2.github.com
      identity_file: repo2_deploy.github.id_rsa

Just found this patch on a fork from @grypyrg which solved my issue: https://github.com/grypyrg/ansible-ssh-config/commit/dc32394c2f458b87aa7ba67e0f88ea8ebaf6b02f

I sent a new PR https://github.com/gaqzi/ansible-ssh-config/pull/29. I thought I sent it before.
