Git 客户端在我第一次尝试使用 SSH 密钥访问时询问密码

Question

I am using Git to access remote repository and when ever I try to access git using my ssh key, it's asking password. I never added password in any stage. My Git Admin imported my id_rsa.pub file into GIT server and configured. But, with out password it's not proceeding further, also I never succeeded to access git from git client.

Can anyone suggest what could be the issue?

Thank you

I never added password in any stage

The only stage where a "password" (passphrase actually) could have been set is when creating your id_rsa private key.

Check if that file begins with:

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED
DEK-Info: DES-EDE3-CBC,556C1115CDA822F5

If so, you would need to add that key to the ssh-agent in order to cache said passphrase.
