Description

## Symptom
After entering command `lg2 clone`, the SSH keeps asking for password, instead of performing the clone.
This has a chance to happen, or it is to specific repositories, I’m not sure.

## Example
![ssh_keep_requesting_password](https://github.com/holzschu/a-shell/assets/103016663/8a6173fb-94d6-4ca6-a533-2b08193dcab2)
In this case, I have no password set for that key, so I just pressed Enter when it says `Password:`, then the password request shows up again.

To confirm that my SSH authentication is working, I cloned another repo which is this repo, and it was cloned.
![ssh_password_issue_success_n_failure](https://github.com/holzschu/a-shell/assets/103016663/d4acbe16-e891-4bd2-8ad6-f9628d0a6caa)

Same issue occurred when I was cloning other repos a few days ago, however after several tries and restarts I managed to clone. This time it just not cloning.

## Spec
- **Machine**: iPad Pro 3
- **OS**: iPadOS 16.5
- **a-Shell**: from App Store
