Trying out gitorious I hit a road-block in the form of this error message:

Agent admitted failure to sign using the key.
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Found a workaround here http://identi.ca/conversation/32495642, and will post it as an answer shortly.

So, as mentioned here http://identi.ca/conversation/32495642 the workaround (or maybe this is the standard protocol?) is to use ssh-add.

$ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Enter passphrase for /home/adam/.ssh/id_rsa:

After doing that, the following command uploaded the files to the remote repository:

$ git push origin master
