Is the password prompt from the repository or your local ssh client?  You can 
tell if it is from the local client because it says something like 
"Enter passphrase for key '/home/bcappello/.ssh/id_rsa':"

If you have different passwords for your account than your ssh key, you may be 
entering the wrong password.

Also, my .ssh/config has a line in it, so I do not need to have my username on 
the command line. For reference (cat ~/.ssh/config):

Host *.kde.org
        User fvilas
        IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
