Oct 20, 2015 @MGIMATTY I had issues with git extensions and gitlab too. To work around this: generate the ssh keys using git bash: ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C 'youremail@example.com' add the public key generated to your gitlab account; test the connection: ssh -T git@gitlab.yourdomain.com; check that the distant repository url is correct. SSH keys can be generated while setting up the GIT Extensions. In order to use a safe development environment with SSH you need to get PuTTY installed as a preferred SSH client. PuTTY can be downloaded from The first thing is to check that Git Extensions is properly configured to use PuTTY, as well as all paths, are given correctly. Generating a Secure Shell (SSH) Public/Private Key Pair Several tools exist to generate SSH public/private key pairs. The following sections show how to generate an SSH key pair on UNIX, UNIX-like and Windows platforms.

SSH keys are a way to identify trusted computers, without involving passwords. The steps below will walk you through generating an SSH key and adding the public key to the server.

1. Generating a new SSH key pair. If you want to create: An ED25519 key, read ED25519 SSH keys. Alternatively, it is possible to directly assign aliases to hosts in.ssh/config. SSH and, by extension, Git will fail to log in if there is an IdentityFile set outside of a Host block in.ssh/config.

Step 1: Check for SSH Keys

First, check for existing SSH keys on your computer. Open Git Bash, Cygwin, or Terminal, etc. Gta iv key generator no survey. and enter:

Check the directory listing to see if you already have a public SSH key. By default, the filenames of the public keys are one of the following:

• id_dsa.pub
• is_ecdsa.pub
• id_ed25519.pub
• id_rsa.pub

If you see an existing public and private key pair listed (for example id_rsa.pub and id_rsa) that you’d like to use, you can skip Step 2 and go straight to Step 3.

Step 2: Generate a new SSH key

With your command line tool still open, enter the text shown below. Make sure you substitute in your email address:

You’ll be asked to enter a passphrase, or simply press Enter to not enter a passphrase:

After you enter a passphrase (or just press Enter twice), review the fingerprint, or ‘id’ of your SSH key:

Step 3: Add your key to the ssh-agent

To configure the ssh-agent program to use your SSH key, first ensure ssh-agent is enabled.

If you are using Git Bash, turn on the ssh-agent with command shown below instead:

Then, add your SSH key to the ssh-agent:

Step 4: Add your SSH key to the server

To add your public SSH key to the server, you’ll copy the public SSH key you just created to the server. Substitute “username” with your username on the server, and “server.address.com” with the domain address or IP address of your server:

The server will then prompt you for your password:

That’s it! You should now be set up to connect to the server without having to authenticate.
