Hi again,

I hope this replies to the right thread.

I forgot to say I'm using Mintty. When it asks me for my passphrase it
asks me from the Mintty console I ran the "git gui" command from. Two
things happen here, my passphrase is displayed as I type it and when I
quit the git-gui, only every other key typed appears.

I tried to use it the regular Cygwin shell and it works better. Instead
of the passphrase prompt coming in the shell it comes up in a Tk dialog
box. But this time it successfully accepts my passphrase and
authenticates. But it still won't use ssh-agent.
