And this line is telling you that ssh doesn't allocate a pty, and the
login shell on the other end will not print a shell prompt because it
thinks it shouldn't do that unless it's talking to a tty/pty.
Not that it's a solution necessarily, but would a work-around for this
issue be to use RSA authentication combined with ssh-agent? Is that
even possible on Windows?
