SSH_ASKPASS

Hi,

I'm trying to get "git push" to use git-gui--askpass to ask me for the
password instead of promting me on the command promt. I need this because I
start the "git push" command from code and there is no terminal where ssh
can ask the user for a password. I tried writing the following tcl script
that allmost is what I need:

set env(SSH_ASKPASS) "C:/Program
Files/Git/libexec/git-core/git-gui--askpass"
exec ssh git@xxxxxxxxxx

Ssh will now ask me for the password using git-gui--askpass. But now the
standardout is also shown in a dialog, and not on the standardout of the
process. Looking at the git-gui scripts didn't help me, because I have
absolutely zero experience in tcl.

I also tried not using a tcl script, but setting SSH_ASKPASS as an
environment variable in windows. This doesn't seem to work, ssh will still
prompt me for a password. 

Anyone can help me write a script that asks for the password using
SSH_ASKPASS but still prints the output on standardout? 

I use Windows btw.

Henk
