I've just started a new private project and wanted to push it to Bitbucket. However, git just hangs after entering my ssh passphrase:

psirus|example» git push -u origin master
Enter passphrase for key '/home/psirus/.ssh/id_rsa':

Unfortunately, nothing more useful can be found by using -v:

psirus|example» git push -v -u origin master 
Pushing to git@bitbucket.org:psirus/example.git
Enter passphrase for key '/home/psirus/.ssh/id_rsa':

What else can I do to debug this problem? I can successfully push to my other Bitbucket repos, using this ssh key, this computer, this connection.

How long did you wait? – arkascha Aug 20 '15 at 08:12
I left it last night for hours. And there is basically just three text files of a couple of lines each in there. – Psirus Aug 20 '15 at 08:26
@Psirus What OS do you use? – neshkeev Aug 20 '15 at 08:50
Arch Linux 64bit. Meanwhile, it worked. I've done nothing different. *shrug* – Psirus Aug 20 '15 at 09:04

Try [$ eval `ssh-agent -s`](http://stackoverflow.com/a/17848593/3686755) `$ ssh-add /home/psirus/.ssh/id_rsa` `$ git push origin master` – neshkeev Aug 20 '15 at 09:08
