I downgraded just the openssh package in cygwin from 5.5p1-1 to 5.4p1-1 and the problem went away. This was easier than switching to putty/plink. Before the downgrade my rate of failure was 100%. I was doing a "git remote update origin", not a clone, but the symptoms were the same as Andre's. -- Gabriel Burca
