    <p>I think I encountered the same issue. What resolved it for me was to use Cygwin Git with PuTTY for ssh instead of Cygwin's ssh.</p> <p>I tried the PuTTY workaround because of information in this Cygwin mailing list thread:</p> <ul> <li>[1]: <a href="http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-07/msg00505.html" rel="nofollow">http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-07/msg00505.html</a> "git and openssh issue"</li> </ul> <p>This Cygwin mail thread also seemed to point to some problem in Cygwin/OpenSSL/Git for Git version 1.7.1 (I'm on Git 1.7.3.3, so the problem may span several versions):</p> <ul> <li>[2]: <a href="http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-09/msg00831.html" rel="nofollow">http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-09/msg00831.html</a> "git stopped working with 1.7.1"</li> </ul> <p>If you already had a working Cygwin Git + Cygwin ssh configuration, you may not need to start from scratch. What worked for me was to </p> <ol> <li>Download puttygen.exe, plink.exe, pageant.exe and putty.exe from the PuTTY website.</li> <li>Run puttygen.exe to convert your existing Cygwin .ssh private key into a PuTTY .ppk private key, and then save it somewhere.</li> <li>Run pageant.exe, load the PuTTY private key, and authorise.</li> <li>Next, run putty.exe to ssh onto the hosts you want to access from Git, so you can save the host to the list of knows ssh hosts in the Windows registry</li> <li>Finally, you need to configure Git to use PuTTY instead of Cygwin ssh. To do this, set the environtment variable GIT_SSH to point to the plink.exe executable. E.g., <code>export GIT_SSH=/cygdrive/c/somedirectory/plink.exe</code></li> </ol> <p>HTH</p>
