Change of SSH Agent [message #1720565]

I used to have TortoiseGit installed but have now uninstalled it and am using Git Bash instead. I'd like eclipse to use "C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\ssh.exe" (or should it be ssh-agent.exe?) but there is nothing listed in the "Select preferred SSH Agent" box of General/Network/SSH2/SSH Agent.

When I attempt to pull, I get the error:
Cannot run program "C:\Program Files\TortoiseGit\bin\TortoisePlink.exe": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

...which is unsurprising as I have uninstalled Tortoise - but I can't find where that path is configured.

My GIT_SSH environment variable is set to "C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\ssh.exe"

Git Bash is working fine.

So the question is, how do I tell eclipse where to look for a new SSH agent?

Thanks

Maybe Eclipse sees a different environment with GIT_SSH set to the old path ?
This may depend on how you start Eclipse, from a terminal, from a shortcut etc.
