ssh

I'm trying to push a changeset from a local Mercurial repository created with TortoiseHg to a remote Git repository. I have hg-git installed and configured and it will pull just fine. But when I run the push it gives me this

Command

hg push git+ssh://git@dummyrepo:username/repo.git

Result

pushing to git+ssh://git@dummyrepo:username/repo.git
importing Hg objects into Git
creating and sending data
abort: the remote end hung up unexpectedly

There are several things I've done to get to this point. But I'm hoping to resolve this last thing because I find TortoiseHg to be much easier to work with than any of the Git tools out there (for windows.)

Installed TortoiseHg
Pulled down the hg-git from http://bitbucket.org/durin42/hg-git/
Configured mercurial.ini to point to the hg-git library
Pulled down dulwich source from git://git.samba.org/jelmer/dulwich.git
Compiled dulwich and put it into library.zip for TortoiseHg
Configured TortoiseHg to use TortoisePlink.exe for ssh
Added my private key to Pageant

Any ideas what I could be missing?
