Visual Studio 2013 Git Version Control - SSH Key

Question

I'm very excited that VS 2013 includes built in support for Git, but I'm having some trouble getting it to work correctly. I have authentication set up to my own private installation of Gitlab using an SSH key, but I don't see anywhere in Visual Studio 2013 to specify this SSH key. I also had to put in the global Git settings (name and e-mail) in the IDE, which means it's not actually pulling that information from the global settings I've already set up.

Does anybody have any experience with this? I know the official version was just released, but I'm hoping someone may have figured this out with the RC. Thanks!
