Hey all,
We recently upgraded from Git 2.8 to 2.9 and saw an issue when there are multiple keys added to my ssh-agent.
I have two keys. 
- KeyA (my company that has access to the repository I want to clone)
- KeyB (just my personal key with access to my personal stuff)
Having both keys in loaded and listed in `ssh-add -L` fails to clone the repository. I tried to change the order of the key in the agent but neither KeyA, KeyB nor KeyB, KeyA will work. The only case that works if I have KeyA loaded an no other key is added to the ssh-agent.

Having multiple Keys loaded works with Git 2.8 and Git 2.7 (I didn’t try older versions) Cloning fails with “Unauthorized Access” of our Git provider. (It’s Bitbucket in this case)

I read the Changelog for 2.9 and couldn’t find any reference to changed key handling. Is there anything that I can add to the `git clone` command to get the old behavior?

Thank you for your help, Best Ben
