Two more bits of information that might be relevant: 1. Git 1.7.10 was installed into C:\Git 2. In the Jenkins system configuration page, the path to Git is specified as C:\Git\cmd\git.cmd. I tried specifying the path as C:\Git\bin\git.exe, but in that case git.exe spawns ssh.exe which hangs. I can use the Git bash shell and get the repository just fine though without specifying a password (currently the ssh key has no password) Don
