Description

When attempting to publish an artifact to an ssh server we get the following exception intermittently:

Error installing artifact's metadata: Error while deploying metadata: Authentication failed: Cannot connect. Reason: verify: false

Other consumers of the jsch library have had a similar issue [1], their fix was to add retry logic while attempting to make the connection to the ssh server.
