How to setup SSH for GitHub repository

[@LuisCervantes-du2lv]

Your explanation of how to install SSH into GitHub was very helpful. What a great teacher you are.

[@Codemify]

Thanks a lot for the feedback :)

[@johnborron1059]

Thank you sir! You have got me half the way there. So much more complex now than when I set it up on my old computer a few years ago. I like your style

[@Codemify]

Glad it helped!

[@EminoMeneko]

This is fair enough for local usage. Thank you for the directions. Now if I got there, it is because I am following a training. I am given a VM on which I could do my work so that the instructor could see what I do. The thing is I prefer working locally, then push. But I am concerned with security and I want no one to mess with my repos/account when the machine is unattended. So I need a passphrase. I found a simpler way on Windows. It involves generating the key from GIT Gui utility. In one click the key is generated. Generating from CLI did not recognize the existence of any key. I don't know if it looks for a specific name or what but at least it works when GIT Gui generates the key. When I clone using SSH it will ask for the passphrase every time I push or pull which is what I want. You can also have ssh-agent enable in the current window if you still need to sync quite often. But closing the window just clears the data and the passphrase will be asked for again on a new session (up to you to repeat the ssh-agent steps or not). After my training ends, I can simply remove that SSH key (EDIT: I meant from GitHub. Should one even forget the key on the VM, it will become useless).

I appreciate the simple tutorial, i was stuck in add a ssh key to github, now it works, thanks a lot !

[@mochi5523]

It's amazing how this still didn't work after multiple videos. Thanks for the great work, keep it up!

[@amuslimintheusa]

thank you for amazing things,. But I missing something. where did you copy the code that starts ssh ( 5:43 ) from

[@Codemify]

On 3:54 I’ve copied the command On 4:16 I ran it and it copied the key

[@amuslimintheusa]

@@Codemify It worked! thank you so much

[@Codemify]

Very helpful your explanation on how to install the SSH in Github. Thank you so much! By the way, you teach and also explain things pretty well!

[@matrikomatriko]

Thanks Sergii, this was really helpful!

[@bluedot2989]

I am little bit lost here. Where did you copy your SSH key from before paste it in the new SSH KEY input field?

[@Codemify]

On 3:54 I’ve copied the command On 4:16 I ran it and it copied the key Please rewatch 🥂

[@priyanshubisht8326]

5:33 from where did you copy this ssh key ..

[@olga_lc]

Hi! So if I already have an ssh generated for Gitlab, the same one should be used for GitHub as well? How often should we change them? Thanks

[@Codemify]

Good questions! 1. I've never used Gitlab and Github simultaneously but I see no reason why it would not work. You generate one key for two different doors(same locks) 2. Generally, you don't need to change them if they have not been compromised

[@olga_lc]

@@Codemify thanks for the quick response. Yeah I just added my existing ssh into Github account and it works for both. I haven't really had the problem connecting and pushing to github repo with the commands they give you when you create one, until today.

[@Codemify]

@@olga_lc Yeyyy!!! Great job! You've just successfully tested our theory 🤔 It's a pleasure to collaborate and help likeminded people!

[@prasanthsikakollu9328]

I have created a ssh key pair and added public one into the github account. But when I run git commands, it still asks for the username/password. How to fix that? Do I need to run any additional commands after cloning?

[@Codemify]

git remote set-url origin [e-mail]:username/repo.git This command will change it to ssh. Replace username/repo.git with the path to your repository (you can get this from the main page of your repository on GitHub). Let me know if it works ;)

[@028_j.raghava2]

Thanks a lot sir very valuable information!! One small question where is the private key stored? when we generate key pair it actually created public key in local and we pasted the same in website what about private key?

[@ort.school]

the best and calmest

[@backtobackcosmicflash]

the github documentation no more gives you 'pbcopy' command, it gives you some 'clip' command and it doesn't work for you. i'm lacking the syntax.

[@Codemify]

You might be looking into different pages. Here is the one docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account

[@oliviareilly]

confused where you got the webprojects folder... what does that correspond to? I am not starting off with any folder.

[@Codemify]

Which second of the video are you talking about?

[@edulalo777]

Thank You Sergii!

[@jimb5051]

1:37 totally lost. cant find the page he is on? I will try other videos.

[@matrikomatriko]

lol what, do you mean the github repo or visual studio? If this confuses you already, then maybe coding isn't for you...

[@bodnarsa]

If I generated an SSH key on my Windows machine, how to use it on my Linux machine? Should I generate another key for Linux machine?

[@Codemify]

It would be easier just to generate it directly on linux machine, than to move it around from machine to machine

mmm not working. it always sends me 'warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository' or 'fatal: destination path 'test' already exists and is not an empty directory. 'after doing the git clone code. I'm very new to this so I don't get it. I check the folder and it is empty. Thank you very much to anyone that can help me

this is so confusing, 30 minutes later I'm still confused. The copy and pasting of keys needs to be explained better

[@Codemify]

If you are on the Mac, you run a command that copies the key to the keyboard. Then you simply Command-V to paste it or right click and paste!

[@timmyhiggins5220]

@@Codemify I dont mean how to copy and paste. I mean you dont explain the copy and paste of the key correctly. You are copying the generated key, then another shorter key you copied from the instructions. You dont explain about joining them together to form a full key, if that is what your doing 🤷‍♂️. I still dont even know because it's so confusing.

[@Codemify]

@@timmyhiggins5220 What short key are you talking about? You don't need to join anything. You generate a key, copy it, and add it to your github account. Let me know if it doesn't work
