Solution

  • There is no magic because the credential helper is for storing https credentials, not ssh passphrase ones for private keys.

    Try an ssh agent, as described in "Working with SSH key passphrases".
    Note that is ssh is asking you for a password (not a passphrase), that also could be because your ssh public key is not properly registered on the remote site (and it falls back to username/password way of authentication)
