SSH Keys

SSH keys let you push and pull over SSH without entering a password.

Adding an SSH Key

  1. Generate a key pair if you don't have one:

    ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "[email protected]"

    Your public key is at ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub.

  2. Copy your public key:

    cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
  3. In GitBlixt, go to Settings → SSH Keys → Add SSH Key
  4. Paste your public key and give it a name (e.g. "MacBook Pro")
  5. Click Add Key

Testing Your Key

ssh -T [email protected]
# Expected: Welcome to GitBlixt, username!

Cloning with SSH

git clone [email protected]:username/repository.git
