Git SSH Executable option missing Follow
Hello,
recently I have switched from 2018.3.5 to 2019.1.1 and since then, I can't pull/push anything from the git repository via SSH. In previous version I managed fix that issue by setting SSH Executable to "Native", but in new one the option is missing.
Could you tell me how can I use Git Integration with SSH in current version?

Hello. Since 2019.1 we're using "Native" all the time. What error are you getting on pull/push? You might want to investigate this with support via Help > Contact Support. Might be something similar to https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-210651
This sounds suspiciously like a problem I'm having. I opened a case with JetBrains (request #2106782) for assistance.
I am having a problem in the webstorm 2019 that is related. In webstorm 2018, I was using built in ssh executable. When I updated to 2019, my git connection broke to my private repo on bitbucket. I get this error when trying to pull:
11:47 Update failed
Unauthorized
Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
When I switch my webstorm 2018 preference to native from built in I get the same error in 2018. So my problem must be the native ssh executable. How do I fix it? I'm on a macbook pro running mojave
Joshua, when you run
git fetchvia Terminal in the same project directory, what is the result?hm, I seem to get this:
-----
git fetch
Unauthorized
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

But in webstorm 2018 with built in ssh executable, I can fetch with the webstorm ui, which is what I usually use. In the past, I have used the command line to do some things with git and access to the remote repo. I don't know what changed. Any ideas for me? I tried adding my private key identity (ssh-add ~/.ssh/MY_KEY) and that didn't help
Ok, I got a little further. I was apparently not adding the ssh identity right. On macOS you need to add the -K flag when using ssh-add. So now I have git fetch working in terminal. But not in webstorm 2019
Is it possible that you were using any credential helper? Starting from 2019.1.1, it is not used by default anymore (an option -c credential.helper= is passed)
Here is the short instruction on how to revert the old behaviour back:
