      Cannot use a git repository with ssh, if the key is password-protected.

      Example:

      $# Set password for ssh key:
$ ssh-keygen -p -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Key has comment '/var/lib/jenkins/.ssh/id_rsa'
Enter new passphrase (empty for no passphrase): ***
Enter same passphrase again: ***
Your identification has been saved with the new passphrase.

$git remote -v
origin ssh://git@git.server/repo (fetch)
origin ssh://git@git.server/repo (push)
