Create a new SSH agent on any type of OS (so including Windows)

ssh-agent's Issues

Add support for ssh agent that comes with git for windows (git-bash/ cygwin)

As discussed on the rclone forum it would be great if this library could work with the ssh agent which comes with git-bash.

This is a packaged up version of cygwin and is very popular for running git on windows.

For example git-bash is installed on all Azure pipelines builders and GitHub actions builders by default.

I guess that in this case the library should just use the unix way of connecting to the ssh-agent. Perhaps detected by the presence of the correct environment variables?

compile failures

Using Go 1.11 beta 1, I get the following errors:

Update dependencies, issue on Mac M1 (arm64)

Hi Sander,

I came across the following error message, more than a few times ;-)
verifying go.mod: github.com/xanzy/[email protected]/go.mod: cannot authenticate record data in server response

Please forgive me if I draw the wrong conclusion, just started Go programming for a terraform provider so this is all pretty new to me.

But, I am on a Mac M1 (darwin/arm64) I came across the same error message wether is was during the go get of the terraform-provider-sdk v2.7.0, terraform-exec or the install of goreleaser.
I think it al comes down to the dependency off ssh-agent on go-winio v0.4.14 (see error messages below)
From version >= v0.4.17 all goes well and the go-winio installs without any issues.

go install github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser@latest: github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser@none updating to. 
	github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser@v0.174.1 requires. 
	github.com/goreleaser/nfpm/v2@v2.6.0 requires.

Release fix for windows

Hi @svanharmelen

Could you create the tag v3.3.3 with the fix for windows?
I would then open an MR in go-git.

Thanks.

Add support for Windows 10 Native SSH agent

I use this library in rclone (thank you very much) for windows ssh support.

I recently had a request rclone/rclone#2988 for adding support for "Windows 10 native ssh-agent".

According to one of the posts on that issue

It uses a Named Pipe located at \\.\pipe\openssh-ssh-agent

Could this library be tweaked to allow that as well as pagent?
