passwordless github connection

(https://github.com/abu2020/)

1. you should have cloned your repo as SSH :

https >> git clone https://github.com/USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git
SSH >> git clone [email protected]:USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git

2. making SSH key pair:

ssh-keygen
  • skip all questions
  • now you have ssh key pair in ~/.ssh/
  • ( id_rsa ) > (private key)
  • ( id_rsa.pub ) > (public key)
  • note: now you can send your public key (id_rsa.pub) anywhere you wanna have ssh access.

3. adding public key to your github account:

go to:

  1. setting
  2. SSH and GPG keys
  3. new ssh key
  4. enter a title
  5. copy the content of your id-rsa.pub into the Key field
  6. submit add key
  7. Done

now in git push , you do not need to enter username and password.
its going to be done by SSH key pair, you have private key and your github account has public key.

DONE
