    • Priority: Low
    • 1.7
    • Affects Version/s: 1.6.23
    • Component/s: General, Git
    • Environment:

      JDK: 1.8.0_66
      Windows 10
      Embedded Git 2.6.1

      After a fresh install of SourceTree 1.6.23, the first time it is executed, I get a pop up message saying that it was unable to execute ssh-agent.exe (see attached screen shot).

      Note that ssh-agent.exe it was trying to launch was 'C:\Users\Ed Solis\AppData\Local\Atlassian\SourceTree\git_local\bin\ssh-agent.exe' but upon checking this directory, there where no such executable. However, upon checking further, that executable was found under 'C:\Users\Ed Solis\AppData\Local\Atlassian\SourceTree\git_local\usr\bin' directory.

      How do I tell SourceTree to look for ssh-agent.exe under ...\git_local\usr\bin instead of ...\git_local\bin ?
