Blog about your experience.

Let’s start the Blogging process…. Below is the read me file of the steps that I needed to take setup my SSH public key on the GIT repo.

1. Clone the repository at ssh://sbr600@scotland.proximity.on.ca/~/certs/ to your computer.
   Command: git clone ssh://sbr600@scotland.proximity.on.ca/~/certs/



2. Create a new brach in the repo.
   Command: git checkout -b dsegree



3. Add my public ssh key to the repo.

Command: git add dsegree.pub
Command: git commit -m “add some comments”



Note: If the above commit command doesn’t work then type the below commands…..

git config –global user.name “Your Name” <– your name
git config –global user.email you@example.com <– your email



4. Check the Git log to make sure all looks good.

Command: git log



5. Push branch to repo.
   Command: get push origin dsegree:dsegree

   

Fineto I am now able to ssh into @scotland.proximity.on.ca

Example: ssh dsegree@scotland.proximity.on.ca
