In certain circumstances (perhaps after a service pack installation), you will find git network operations failing with this is because plink.exe running from your (cygwin-provided) git command "*can't talk with pageant to get its keys*":http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/wishlist/cygwin-clobbers-pageant.html . A solution is to set up a script that has: 
/cygdrive/c/ntnot/plink.exe -i "c:\users\you\.ssh\key-file-for-github.ppk" $1 $2
+ and set GIT_SSH to point to this: + 
declare -x GIT_SSH="c:\path\to\script"
This explicitly provides the key for plink to use, rather than have it talk with pageant. -- cgit v1.3.1
