-For some reason, that causes the Powershell command to go away. I think
start-ssh-agent runs a command prompt shell afterwards instead of Powershell,
so that means that Powershell features go away. And because Powershell limits
to 9999 lines of console output and the build spits out many more lines than
that, having Powershell fork output to a file is useful. So I would launch
another Powershell window and run Ant in there, but pipe the output to a file

+Note (November 11, 2018): The above did not work for me. The internet says
that OpenSSH is now shipped with Windows and Powershell knows how to work with
it but Git doesn't use it by default. Also, OpenSSH seems to be disabled by
default. I took the following steps:
+
+In c:\Users\<username>\.gitconfig, add:
+
+`[core]`
+` sshcommand = c:/Windows/System32/OpenSSH/ssh.exe`
+
+Then in the Window "Services" app, I found OpenSSH Authentication service was
disabled. I right-clicked on the word "disabled" and changed "disabled" to
Manual".
+
+Then in Powershell, I ran:
+
+`Start-Service ssh-agent`
+`ssh-add C:\Users\<username>\.ssh\id_rsa`
+
+This asked me for the passphrase for the key.
+
+Then test ssh by making a small commit (I changed royale-compiler
GIT-TEST.txt) and pushing using the SSH user:
+
+`git push g...@github.com:apache/royale-compiler.git`

'ant -f releasecandidate.xml <options> | Tee-Object -file <path to log>'
