+### Please describe the problem.
+Having set up a key pair, the assistant is unable to use it to log in. The console only shows a single attempt to log in, when it's adding the key to the remote machine's authorized_keys file. This is evidently failing, as the key is not actually added to authorized_keys, possibly because the shell script it tries to execute is malformed (crazy quoting, I can't untangle it), or possibly because it failed to ask for a password (I expected it to, but it didn't prompt for one). Also, once I do add the key to authorized_keys, I can ssh in using it but asking the assistant to retry still fails.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+Set up a remote repository.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+Windows 7, Version: 5.20131230-g192d991 
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+    Failed to make repository
+    Something went wrong setting up the repository on the remote server.
