Hi,

I use some scripts to do some batch operations (pull / push), using
rsa key and ssh-agent / ssh-add. I'm under Windows 10 (with all
updates).
When launching my script (see below, truncated : more than 100 repo),
I have to enter rsa passphrase (OK) then all push/pull are done
without any user interaction (no passphrase, no password, nothing)
All Git versions up to 2.33.0.2 are working fine, but since 2.33.1,
git asks every time the password.
I had to create a 'config' file within '.ssh' directory to support my
rsa key (too old format ?). Instructions according to
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35233777/git-error-unable-to-negotiate-with-xx-xx-xxx-xxx-no-matching-host-key-type-fo
I also have seen that some people have to add 'ssh-add -K', but it
seems to be only for MacOS.
According to release notes for 2.33.1, Git Credential Manager for
Windows has been replaced by Git Credential Manager Core, but I don't
know if it is the "root" problem, and if yes, how to fix my issue.
I would greatly appreciate any help / solution. Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
JL
