getting ssh-agent to work with git run from windows command shell

Question

Hello!

I have msysgit installed, with OpenSSH. I am connecting to a gitosis repo.

From the git bash, I have created a .profile file that runs ssh-agent (if not already running) each time git bash is opened.

Here is my script: http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-06/msg00537.html

I am also using git extensions, which runs the git command from the windows command prompt, not git bash. So, ssh doesn't see the ssh-agent that is running. Is it possible to fix this?

Thanks!!
