Subject: Run ssh with ServerAliveInterval 60

So that stalled transfers will be noticed within about 3 minutes,
even if TCPKeepAlive is disabled or doesn't work.

Rather than setting with -o, use -F with another config file,
so that any settings in ~/.ssh/config or /etc/ssh/ssh_config overrides this.
