Oh, I see. That makes sense.

The dialog won't let me click "OK" until I type *something* in the
password field, though it turns out to not matter what I actually type
there. Presumably this is because the SSH connection will use existing
Kerberos credentials and therefore not actually use the password I type
at all.

I consider this to be a minor UI glitch. Nice to fix eventually but not
really the core problem at hand.

I'm not entering anything unusual in that dialog. The "Repository:",
"Username:", and "Save Password:" fields are left at their initial
values. The "Password:" field is irrelevant, to the extent that either
a correct or an incorrect password yields the same behavior: first
expansion of a repository disclosure arrow works, but after that things
get stuck.

As for "unexpected feedback from the SSH server" ... how would I
diagnose that? Is there anything I can do here to figure out if that's
what is going on?
