I'm trying out git + modular boost for the first time.
When I try to clone the repository as described here [1], I run into a problem where the recursive clone process asks me for my SSH key's passphrase for every submodule (library) that it is checking out.
Is there a way to avoid this?
In windows I tried this https://help.github.com/articles/working-with-ssh-key-passphrases with success to use the command line version. And I used Puttygen (installed by TortoiseGit) to transform the OpenSSH private key to a Putty-friendly ppk file. Then I use Pageant (installed also by TortoiseGit) to type the passphrase once when using TortoiseGit. The same page contains instructions for Mac and I think you can easily deduce the steps for other Unix systems Best, Ion
