Description

Similar to #94 , rather than AuthFailed I'm getting complaints about "session down" when my key is protected. Standard git clone of the same repo works fine and triggers password prompt.

```

Research direction

Start with issue #94 and the JGit/JSch stack trace, then compare giter8's SSH clone path with standard git when a protected key is used. Done means cloning the reported repository succeeds and prompts for the key password instead of reporting that the session is down.
