I'm not able to repro this, and looking at the code we put the setting value directly into the command the only place we create a ConnectTimeout argument. Can you please share additional logs/repro steps? Also, please verify that you do not have a ConnectTimeout option configured in the SSH host config, as that will be preferred.

@connor4312 I tested again and seems it only doesn't work for "remote.SSH.connectTimeout": 0, I'm trying to disable it as setting a value greater than 0 causes ssh to resolve the host which takes a considerable time in my case.

Also, please verify that you do not have a ConnectTimeout option configured in the SSH host config, as that will be preferred.

That's not what I see, ConnectTimeout from ssh config file is always ignored, I created an issue a long time ago for that #8519
