You can only use it for git.
I don't think so. That command works from me from a linux box. Futhermore, this ssh connection is documented here: http://help.github.com/msysgit-key-setup/ It is used to test the login to the github.com account. Finally, this command used to work on cygwin a couple of weeks ago. I looked into OpenSSH readme's and ChangeLog and nothing jumped out. I tried both the current 5.8p1-1 and previous ssh (5.6p1-2). Same problem.
