when i use git-gui (0.9.0) to push/pull to/from a git+ssh://repo i have to supply my password to ssh. i get the password prompt from ssh on the controlling shell. as i often use several shells and git-gui might run in the background it is rather bothering to find the correct shell where ssh expects the password. could this be changed (in a safe way) in git-gui e.g. like pinentry pops up a window when gpg is used to sign emails?

p.s. please cc me. i have not subscribed to the list

thanks
