Overview:

git supports ssh as the transport for communication between the local machine and a remote repository.  At the command line there are no problems accessing a remote repository using kerberized ssh.  However, egit/jgit fails with "Auth fail"  There are no other error messages propagated.  

Other eclipse plugins work with kerberized ssh (CVS, RSE, etc) so I do not believe it is an issue with Eclipse core.

Steps to Reproduce:
    1) Follow instructions at http://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/User_Guide#Working_with_remote_Repositories to clone a remote project.
    2) In the clone Git Repository window, enter in the host, repo path, select ssh for the protocol and enter the username.
    3) Click Next

Actual Results:
    An error message will appear saying: "Cannot list the available branches.  Reason: ssh://username@host/path: Auth fail."  Username, host, and path are filled in in the error message.

Expected Results:
    I assume that the plugin should list branches or at least the master so that I can select something to clone.
