I am still on 10.9.5 and use a default keychain that's NOT the login keychain, and let it auto-lock after a reasonably short timeout.
I'm used to having to issue the `ssh-add -A` command for things like git pushing. Curiously there appears to be a different timeout, presumably managed by the ssh-agent, because I do not need to call ssh-add each time after the keychain has been locked.
What also surprises me a bit is that this never asks for your keychain password, regardless of whether the keychain is locked or not.
