[git] cannot push/pull: Authentication failed ? Follow
When I just switched my machine from Windows to MacOS, pulling/pushing stopped working.
The odd thing is: it works in the terminal. So the SSH is setup correctly.
I think Intellij somehow does not "find" the keys ..
Any ideas?
PS: My configuration is Intellij 11.1.3, MacOS Mountain Lion, git 1.7.9.6, Java 6

Is your private key protected with a passphrase?
Thanks for answering!
Yes, it is. Can I somehow "unlock" it ?
It seems to be an error happening in the underlying library that is used by IDEA. I can't say right now, why. Could you please fire a bug against this to our tracker: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/
Until that is fixed, the workaround is to switch to the native SSH (Settings | Version Control | Git | SSH Executable | Native).
But to make it work with a passphrase you'll have to add the private key to the Mac OS X Keychain.
Using "native" SSH Executable works, thank you.
I also created the ticket: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-90604
