Win32 bzr used from within cygwin: commit to sftp repo freezes

[Bernhard Voelker]

Hi bzr,

I got the windows installation of bzr 1.0.0, and my checkout is bound to 
a sftp:// repository which works great from a DOS box.

But if I'm trying to commit/revert/etc. from within an xterm in cygwin, 
then bzr freezes. I found out that the ssh of the cygwin installation is 
being used (which works fine from bash without password due to 
authorized_keys2 on the server).

Can bzr be forced to use the ssh implementation used by the windows bzr 
installation, i.e. the paramiko lib?

BTW:
after killing bzr, the locks in .bzr/branch/lock and .bzr/checkout/lock 
remained,
but `bzr break-lock` and `bzr info -v` also seemed to freeze ;-(
I had to remove the directories .bzr/*/lock/held manually to make it 
work again.

Thank you & have a nice day,
Berny
