- Install TortoiseGIT and select Plink
- Upgrade from the command line `msiexec /qn /i TortoiseGit-1.7.14.0-64bit.msi" REBOOT=ReallySuppress
- Try to push to an SSH destination configured for password-less login in PuTTY
- curse because it asks for a password
- Go into TortoiseGIT settings and change it back to using TortoisePlink.exe
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Sticking with plink
What version of TortoiseGit and msysgit are you using? On

1.7.14.0, and at least the last 3 versions
Please provide any additional information below.
I think the problem comes from the logic deciding which SSH client to use is in the UI, which doesn't get run in /qn "Shut up and just do it" mode. The logic removes the unwanted setting, but since it doesn't get run both settings are set, and the ssh.exe is last so it wins.
