Subject: feature-request: silently stops ssh-agent.exe when upgrading (windows)
Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2022 09:38:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAOLx1BgQinzZBkHvvmDrGUedEyQa_7ZVsyVGmWjF4gYhxc3P+w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello

I've looked in the public-inbox archive without finding any similar request.

I believe it is a bit annoying that upgrading git-scm always generates
an error when ssh-agent.exe is still running. User than have to open
the Task Manager, find the task and kill it.

Could you consider silently stopping ssh-agent during an upgrade, and
may be restarting it afterward ?
Most installer do that or at least offer the user to do it to allow
seamless upgrading.

Thanks for considering.

All the best and good end of the year.

Best regards

Jean-Michel
