Actually nothing has changed from my original post! Windows git is reliant on 
msysgit which simply does not play nicely with existing ssh setup's on windows. 
Remove msysgit and I can access my customer sites - reinstall, and there is a 
problem which I have not been able to get sorted. There SHOULD not be, but part 
of the exercise last week was to do a clean install on a new machine. No joy - I 
can't access via putty while msysgit is installed BUT there was little point 
trying to FIX it since TortiseGit does not work on Linux and the whole object of 
the exercise is to find some common ground that my 'Linux phobic' customers 
could use on windows while others are working identically on Linux. ECLIPSE just 
works on both and so the ideal solution is fixing the plug-ins in that. Except 
that the windows git framework either does not work with other plug-ins, or 
works differently on windows to Linux. So currently CVS remains the safest 
common ground as long as one lives within it's quirks. While as a backup, 
TortoiseHg provides an external means of handling the DVCS stuff where the 
target site is hg or git, but will not handle the subrepo matters - yet :(
