You might want to represent the "are we tortoise" check as a separate flag, though, and reuse it a few lines later. Also, not related to your patch, but I notice the "putty" declaration is in a different scope than I would have expected, which made me wonder if it gets initialized in all code paths. I think is from the recent addition of CONNECT_DIAG_URL, which pushes the bulk of the code into its own else clause, even though the first part of the "if" always returns early. I wonder if it would be simpler to read like: diff --git a/connect.c b/connect.c index 391d211..749a07b 100644 --- a/connect.c +++ b/connect.c @@ -743,28 +743,28 @@ struct child_process *git_connect(int fd[2], const char *url, free(path); free(conn); return NULL; - } else { - ssh = getenv("GIT_SSH_COMMAND"); - if (ssh) { - conn->use_shell = 1; - putty = 0; - } else { - ssh = getenv("GIT_SSH"); - if (!ssh) - ssh = "ssh"; - putty = !!strcasestr(ssh, "plink"); - } - - argv_array_push(&conn->args, ssh); - if (putty && !strcasestr(ssh, "tortoiseplink")) - argv_array_push(&conn->args, "-batch"); - if (port) { - /* P is for PuTTY, p is for OpenSSH */ - argv_array_push(&conn->args, putty ?
