+### Please describe the problem.
+
+git uses environment variable GIT_SSH to determine SSH client.
+
+I set it to plink.exe because I extensively use pageant infrastructure and do NOT want to have 2 systems lying around.
+
+Unfortunately git-annex seems to ignore that.
+
+Even worse, it results in unpredicted behavior because the git part works (e.g. clone) whereas annex/rsync does not resulting in half-ok repositories without meaningful error messages.
+
+It only becomes evident when ssh.exe in the git repository is deleted.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+Set %GIT_SSH% and remove ssh.exe
+
+You will get
+
+ git-annex: ssh: createProcess: does not exist (No such file or directory)
+ failed
+ git-annex: drop: 1 failed
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+Windows 8,
+
+ $ git annex version
