I am trying to setup my git to let me clone/push/pull/... from and to GitHub in the terminal without entering my Username and Password, but I am getting this error:
❯ git clone https://github.com/Johannes-Krabbe/private-repo.git
Cloning into 'private-repo'...
Username for 'https://github.com': Johannes-Krabbe
Password for 'https://[email protected]':
remote: Support for password authentication was removed on August 13, 2021.
remote: Please see https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/getting-started-with-git/about-remote-repositories#cloning-with-https-urls for information on currently recommended modes of authentication.
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://github.com/Johannes-Krabbe/private-repo.git/'
I followed both of the following tutorials:
- https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent
- https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account
When I run ❯ ssh -T [email protected] I get this output:
Hi Johannes-Krabbe! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.
CodePudding user response：
When using git via ssh you cannot use https:// URLs, but specific ssh addresses instead. In your case use [email protected]:Johannes-Krabbe/private-repo.git to access your repository.
