posh-git and git for windows 2.7 should include everything you need to setup an ssh-agent. Once you have the module installed you can start the agent using something like: Import-Module ~\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\posh-git\posh-git Set-Alias ssh-agent “$env:ProgramFiles\git\usr\bin\ssh-agent.exe” Set-Alias ssh-add “$env:ProgramFiles\git\usr\bin\ssh-add.exe” Start-SshAgent -Quiet You then should see the SSH_AUTH_SOCK environmental variable is set: C:\Code\Go\src\bosun.org\cmd\scollector [master]> gci env:SSH_AUTH_SOCK Name Value … Read more

No tweaks needed. Just make TortoiseGit point to the same ssh client used by git itself, see the screenshot: This should be C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\ssh.exe in latest version of Git as mentioned by Aleksey Kontsevich in the comments.
Depending on your distribution and on the version of ssh-add you may be able or not to use the -p option of ssh-add that reads the passphrase from stdin in this way: cat passfile | ssh-add -p keyfile If this is not working you can use Expect, a Unix tool to make interactive applications non-interactive. … Read more
A solution would be to force the key files to be kept permanently, by adding them in your ~/.ssh/config file: IdentityFile ~/.ssh/gitHubKey IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_buhlServer If you do not have a ‘config’ file in the ~/.ssh directory, then you should create one.
