Every time I try to do anything with a remote repository via pull, push, etc; I get the following error:
git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false fetch origin Unable to open connection: Host does not existfatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly Completed with errors, see above.
host repos identityfile ~/.ssh/id_rsa port 8199 user git hostname repo.domain.com
I was able to make this work by doing the following in Putty:
Then, in PuttyGen:
Then, in Pageant
Finally, I restarted SourceTree (not sure if that is necessary), and it worked for me.
Thanks this was actually the workaround that was given to me by Atlassian Support. My only problem with this is that I am using Git Bash as my default terminal so I, in my view, expect it to use it also for authentication instead of using PuTTy like other clients.

The issue stems from aliases not being supported and the requirement that Pageant must be running in order to use SSH keys when passphrases. I will enter a support ticket as this does not seem to be desired functionality.
