无法使用 SSH 克隆 Github 回购协议

Question

I have freshly installed Linux Manjaro with Plasma Desktop. Cloning my repos from Github using SSH gives me some trouble. I tried

[andreas@Bixente ~]$ ssh-add -l
Could not open a connection to your authentication agent.
[andreas@Bixente ~]$ eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
Agent pid 5346
[andreas@Bixente ~]$ ssh-add -l
The agent has no identities.
[andreas@Bixente ~]$ ssh-add ~/.ssh/github
Identity added: /home/andreas/.ssh/github (andreas@Bixente)
[andreas@Bixente ~]$ git clone git@github.com:Username/project.git ~/TestDir
Cloning into '/home/andreas/TestDir'...
Connection closed by 140.82.121.3 port 22
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

What am I doing wrong? I am sure I put the key on Github. Furthermore, it seems like I have to do this after every restart.

Edit: Nothing really works. I followed step by step, even created and used another key with default name. Still no solution.

[andreas@Bixente .ssh]$ ssh-add id_ed25519
Identity added: id_ed25519 (andreas@Bixente)
[andreas@Bixente .ssh]$ ssh -Tvvv git@github.com

Edit: I followed the exact same steps to my friends machine (MacBook Air) without any problems. But I recognized, I was never asked to add Github to known_hosts.

Answer 1

Check here , to get an idea on how the cloning process works.

• ❗ ensure that you are providing public key in the GitHub console

• check the connection using ssh -T git@github.com , in case of any errors check here

• verify that public and private keys are present in the .ssh folder and optionally known_hosts

• debug using ssh -vvv git@github.com

That should resolve your issue.
