SSH keys are generated by the openSSH program and are usually stored in `.ssh` folder of the home directory for the user.
|
||
|
|
* Windows: `C:\Users\PTrowbridge\.ssh`
|
||
|
|
* NIX `//home/pt/.ssh`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If there is nothing there you can create keys by doing `ssh-keygen` like so:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
sshdemo@USHCC10107:~$ ssh-keygen
|
||
|
|
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
|
||
|
|
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/sshdemo/.ssh/id_rsa):
|
||
|
|
Created directory '/home/sshdemo/.ssh'.
|
||
|
|
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
|
||
|
|
Enter same passphrase again:
|
||
|
|
Your identification has been saved in /home/sshdemo/.ssh/id_rsa.
|
||
|
|
Your public key has been saved in /home/sshdemo/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
|
||
|
|
The key fingerprint is:
|
||
|
|
SHA256:DpV1961Dec5/vmASwdu8eYPp1UXi4QOku6LJeVoSz3o sshdemo@USHCC10107
|
||
|
|
The key's randomart image is:
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
sshdemo@USHCC10107:~$
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if you chose to use a passphrase you will have to enter the passphrase once whenever you (login/boot?)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here's the folder and files it created:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
sshdemo@USHCC10107:~$ cd .ssh/
|
||
|
|
sshdemo@USHCC10107:~/.ssh$ ll
|
||
|
|
total 4
|
||
|
|
drwx------ 1 sshdemo sshdemo 512 May 14 15:38 ./
|
||
|
|
drwxr-xr-x 1 sshdemo sshdemo 512 May 14 15:38 ../
|
||
|
|
-rw------- 1 sshdemo sshdemo 1766 May 14 15:38 id_rsa
|
||
|
|
-rw-r--r-- 1 sshdemo sshdemo 400 May 14 15:38 id_rsa.pub
|
||
|
|
sshdemo@USHCC10107:~/.ssh$
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the `id_rsa.pub` file is the public key.
|
||
|
|
if you copy the contents to your profile on a git server, you can use ssh to connect instead of having to use user/pass with http.
|
||
|
|
usually you log into the website and go to setting for your profile.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
after loading the public key to your public profile can clone the repo using ssh.
|
||
|
|
to target an alternate port you will have to manually do a remote add:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`git clone ssh://git@gitea.hptrow.me:port_num_here/pt/notes`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
or if the repo is already setup you can:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``git remote add hptrow ssh://git@gitea.hptrow.me:port_num_here/pt/notes`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
now you can `git push` without any password prompt
