Johannes, You’re correct, looking back over it, I was pretty vague. In truth, we are not using Windows OR putty at all. Running git on an Ubuntu system, but we are setting the GIT_SSH environment variable to point to a shell script to use. Upon attempting to run git ls-remote, the system was spitting out getaddrinfo errors for ‘atch’ . Setting GIT_TRACE=2 showed that -batch was being added to the git command. This was seen on several different servers with git versions 1.8.5.2, 1.9.1 and 2.3.5 After a bit we realized that it was the string ‘uplink’ in the GIT_SSH variable that was linked to the extra -batch flag. Finally, after searching the git source, we narrowed it down to the ‘plink’ portion of the string. https://github.com/git/git/blob/7c597ef345aed345576de616c51f27e6f4b342b3/connect.c#L747-L7
Brian, I got your patch, but can't see it in the list yet 1/2 looks good, thanks. (And add msygit) My feeling is that patch 2/2 may break things for an unknown amount of users which e.g. use "myplink". Patrick, did you ever tell us, what you put into $GIT_SSH ? Can your use case be covered by using $GIT_SSH_COMMAND ? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
