git server's host key is not cached in the registry

Question

I try to pull changes from my local repo to a remote repo. When I type

git pull origin hubert

I get the following error:

The server's host key is not cached in the registry. You 
have no guarantee that the server is the computer you
think it is.
The server's rsa2 key fingerprint is:
ssh-rsa 2048 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Connection abandoned.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

But When I type

ssh hubert@remove_host

It work fine.

I'm use Windows 7 32 bits and I have the same files in the dir:

C:\Users\hubert\.ssh
C:\Users\hubert\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Git\.ssh

Thank's for your help.

Check the value (in a git-bash session) of $GIT_SSH: if it involves plink.exe, it won't use $HOME/.ssh/known_host (which already include origin server, since a manual ssh works)

You can either configure plink:

plink.exe hubert@remote_host
# answer 'y'

Or you can set git to use openssh.

@hubert What GIT_SSH referred to? – VonC Apr 16 '16 at 08:44
It refer to `C:\Program Files\putty\plink.exe` – hubert Apr 16 '16 at 08:57
@hubert Exactly: http://stackoverflow.com/a/17713917/6309 or http://stackoverflow.com/a/8713121/6309 should help. – VonC Apr 16 '16 at 08:59
I simply change my GIT_SSH value to `C:\Program Files\Git\bin` – hubert Apr 16 '16 at 09:13
