Create it if it doesn't exist.  Create the ~/.ssh/ directory first, if
that doesn't exist either.

More generally, ~/.ssh/config (which does not exist by default but which
can be created) is the user-level configuration for the ssh client
program.  The system-level defaults are in /etc/ssh/ssh_config.

Also, as long as you're messing with ~/.ssh/config you might want to
set up a keepalive in case you ever communicate through a NAT router.

ServerAliveInterval 300

will send a packet every 300 seconds, which (hopefully) prevents a NAT
router from timing out your idle sessions.

(Yeah, I know, it says "Server" but it's a client-side config option.
I didn't choose the name.)

I know nothing about this "cme" either.
