Yes. Here's a really generic one: break the problem down into parts.

In this instance that means take Mercurial out of the picture and try
running ssh by itself. There's probably a debug switch on plink that'll
tell you precisely what's wrong.

(You'll probably find that Savannah allows only pubkey-based
authentication, which is not configured on your end. But rather than try
to guess the answer, you should work through actually diagnosing the
problem. Guessing the answer often won't get you any closer to a fix.)
