the problem seems to be located in the ssh.exe which comes with git. (location in the standard windows install is: C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin )

I downloaded plink.exe from the putty project and copied it into a directory where the PATH variable points to.

Then I opened the git bash and inserted:
export GIT_SSH=plink.exe
git push

The currently installed version is OpenSSH_4.6p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8e 23 Feb 2007. Maybe an updated openssh version in the git bin folder will solve the problem?

Bye Matthias
