If you already have your SSH keys set up and are still getting the password prompt, make sure your repo URL is in the form

git+ssh://git@github.com/username/reponame.git

as opposed to

https://github.com/username/reponame.git

To see your repo URL, run:

git remote show origin

You can change the URL with git remote set-url like so:

git remote set-url origin git+ssh://git@github.com/username/reponame.git
