The previous method would throw away config set via the command line such as the passphrase entered with "--prompt-for-passphrase".
Automatically prompt the user for its passphrase when connecting to a remote host using an encrypted SSH key and no agent. The passphrase is remembered until the end of the session. This mimicks the behavior of fabric v1. Note that commands called from the fabfile (git, rsync, scp) will still ask for the passphrase everytime.

Using fabric without an agent is painful but much easier to setup than a shared SSH agent.
