Dear all, When using TortoiseSVN 1.14.1 (and below) and the svn+ssh:// connection scheme, it fails for all keyfiles created with puttygen.exe version >=0.75 due to a change in the private keyfile format.
The error displayed in TortoiseSVN "connection closed unexpectedly" is misleading and not helpful. Manually invoking TortoisePlink.exe does not show any error (it just returns to the prompt like for "correct" keyfiles. Workaround: Use an older version of puttygen.exe (e.g. 0.74) to create/convert private ssh keyfiles in order that they are accepted by TortoiseSVN. On the long run, it would be nice if TortoiseSVN would support PuTTY's new private keyfile format.
