      Cannot connect to repository after upgrading to git-client-plugin 1.19.3. Downgrading to 1.19.2 fixes the issue. The key used to connect to the repository is password-protected.

      Logging-in into Jenkins and executing following command succeeds:

      ssh-agent bash -c 'ssh-add ~/.ssh/jenkins.opencms-core.id_rsa; git -c core.askpass=true ls-remote ssh://git@mygithubenterprise:myrepo/tests.git'

      GUI Error message:

      Failed to connect to repository : Command "git -c core.askpass=true ls-remote -h git@mygithubenterprise:myrepo/tests.git HEAD" returned status code 128:
      stdout: 
      stderr: Permission denied (publickey). 
      fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
      
      Please make sure you have the correct access rights
      and the repository exists.
