SSH login not working with TortoisePlink 1.7.11.3 + putty .061

Question

I have installed TortoiseGit 1.7.11.3 and latest putty and ssh login configured.

I am able to ssh to remote machine without remote machine prompting for username and password. But, when I do "git clone xyz@a.b.c:path destination" from command prompt, it prompts for the username and password.

I have set the environmental variables correctly for Git and TortoiseGit.

Could you please let me know is there an issue with TortoisePlink?

Answer 1

Please try latest TortoiseGit release. ATM: 1.7.14 Possibly fixed recently.
