Comment:

In my case, this is plink from TortoiseSVN which is broken for normal usage (it returns immideately after calling).

That's odd, because the plink.exe we ship comes from tortoisesvn! (they patch it with a GUI, which the upstream plink lacks)

Please try the latest beta builds I have uploaded:

  • r19779: missing env settings - probably not essential since this had been broken for a while, maybe this could even be removed
  • r19780: make sure our installation path comes first, so the shell should be finding our copy of plink.exe ahead of any other found on the %PATH%
