                How to make Powershell remember the SSH key passphrase.
              
          
    You should not use the Open SSH client that comes with Git for Windows. Instead, Windows 10 has its own implementation of Open SSH that is integrated with the system. To achieve this:

Start the ssh-agent from Windows Services:


Type Services in the Start Menu or Win+R and then type services.msc to launch the Services window;
Find the OpenSSH Authentication Agent in the list and double click on it;
In the OpenSSH Authentication Agent Properties window that appears, choose Automatic from the Startup type: dropdown and click Start from Service status:. Make sure it now says Service status: Running.


Configure Git to use the Windows 10 implementation of OpenSSH by issuing the following command in Powershell:

git config --global core.sshCommand C:/Windows/System32/OpenSSH/ssh.exe

                Compress PDF files with ghostscript
              
          
    This can reduce files to ~15% of their size (2.3M to 345K, in one case) with no obvious degradation of quality.
ghostscript -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dPDFSETTINGS=/printer -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH -sOutputFile=output.pdf input.pdf

Other options for PDFSETTINGS:

/screen selects low-resolution output similar to the Acrobat Distiller "Screen Optimized" setting.
/ebook selects medium-resolution output similar to the Acrobat Distiller "eBook" setting.
/printer selects output similar to the Acrobat Distiller "Print Optimized" setting.
/prepress selects output similar to Acrobat Distiller "Prepress Optimized" setting.
