title: Git fatal: remote end hung up
body: <p>So I thought I had finally got everything setup on Windows ... then ran into this issue.</p>
  
  <p>Current setup</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>URL: ssh://user@host:port/myapp.git</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Already run Putty - and can connect using valid .ppk keys through the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys direct. In Git and TortoiseGIT - I set both to use "plink.exe".</p>
  
  <p>Putty works fine - no issues - but when I run that URL into bash I get for a git clone (url)</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>fatal: the remote end hung up expectedly</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>In a cygwin bash terminal - running "ssh user@host" - works no probs at all.</p>
  
  <p>Anyone suggest anything?</p>
