I found the root cause of my problem. Apparently I had neglected to send Sourceforge my public keys via a form on their web page. So even from the command line ssh was not able to do key authentication and so it failed back on simple password checking. What I thought was a ssh passphrase prompt was actually a password prompt. So neither ssh-agent nor SSH Keychain helped until I sent Sourceforge my keys. Now Xcode SCM works for me.

As for the ssh/rsh checkbox Wade, I think all it does is force the passphrase check dialog to come up in Xcode. When I uncheck it, SSH authentication still works behind the scenes as long as I have ssh- agent running. It still uses SSH since the $CVS_RSH environment variable is set to ssh. So I am leaving it unchecked now so it won't bother me with a passphase it probably doesn't even use (since ssh- agent already knows what it is).

Thanks everyone for the help,
Eric

I'm pretty sure Xcode doesn't support password-protected keys. The password it prompts you for is for the repository itself, I'm pretty sure - it still prompts me even though I use SSH keys for authentication (I just leave the password blank).

Also you will need to use SSH for Sourceforge; they don't support RSH (or pserver, etc).
