Description Nicolas Laplante 2016-05-31 12:59:49 UTC 
I'm trying to fetch from remote on a SSH protected repository, and it shows this error:

Fetch from remote: Failed to fetch from $REPO: authentication required but no callback set

Replace $REPO with remote definition like:

username@server:/path/to/repository

gitg did not support the ssh short form syntax for specifying ssh urls. I've pushed a fixed on master that adds support for it, in the mean time though you can use the longer form: ssh://username@server/path/to/repository
