Deployer not connecting to repo after SSH port change

[GlennM]

After changing the SSH port on the server to a custom port, Deployer is no longer working (using GitLab CI/CD).

I've added the following entry to the Hosts section of deploy.php
->setPort(XXX)

[xyz.tld] ssh: connect to host gitlab.com port 22: Connection refused
[xyz.tld] fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
[xyz.tld] Please make sure you have the correct access rights
[xyz.tld] and the repository exists.
[xyz.tld]  error  in update_code.php on line 101:
[xyz.tld] exit code 1 (General error)
ERROR: Task deploy:update_code failed!

Port option is only for remote hosts. Your error sats update_code cant ssh to gitlab.com.
