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

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

The error show while adding,

clip < ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
At line:1 char:6
+ clip < ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
+ ~
The '<' operator is reserved for future use.

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).

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

[GabrielLuccaMarsola]

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!

[zouhairsahtout]

I always get back to this video, thank you so much

[JoseLopez-whxe]

Great job! 🥇

Here we need to mention that this is not a tutorial to clone a repository.

[halleluyahpaul]

wow thanks for this it saves me from two days headache 😂🤣

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?

[samirkha]

This video is really helpful. Thanks now I understand all.

[amuslimintheusa]

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

[Smilodon_W_Lee]

well. that's a lot of steps and codes for a beginner. 😁 thanks for you effort. I will try this when I have time
in meantime I am just using the Access token method it is simpler than this SSH one

[dorian]

Great tutorial 👍! Just what I needed, thank you!

[bluedot]

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

[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

[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?

[gauthamraj]

Thankyou so much very clear. able to understand very quick.

[priyanshubisht]

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

[DAVIDALYAHIRRADILLOROJAS]

I followed every step, but when I tried to finally add the ssh key, ii couldn't, the message that appeared was " Key is invalid. You must supply a key in OpenSSH public key format"
