Disable git-annex's support for GIT_SSH and GIT_SSH_COMMAND, unless GIT_ANNEX_USE_GIT_SSH=1 is also set in the environment.
This is necessary because as feared, the extra -n parameter that git-annex passes breaks uses of these environment variables that expect exactly the parameters that git passes. For example, see https://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues/1456 It would of course be possible to pre-close stdin before running ssh so not needing the -n, and I think that would not even break ssh's password caching. But it would probably involve a lot of work, possibly would need to deal with some layering violations, and would be error-prone. The really clean fix would be to make all the ssh stuff return a CreateProcess, which could have the handle closed when appropriate, but that would be a large reworing of the code base. This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
