sshfs won't read ssh config file

I used to be able to rely on my config file in ~/.ssh/config to resolve the identify file I needed to use, server name, etc. Now this does not seem to work anymore. I noticed because I now have to type in my password, whereas I used to not need to do that.

ps - I'm running macOS Sierra, with the latest version of sshfs.

sshfs relies on the ssh binary that ships with macOS to connect to the remote host. The config file is not read by sshfs. Can you verify that connecting to the remote host via ssh works without you needing to enter your password?

Interesting. Yes, I just confirmed that I can login (using ssh) without typing my password.

I have ever encountered such problem too. In the end, I figured out that's because I have RequestTTY force in my ssh config file. Everything is ok after removing RequestTTY force.
