GitHub: Permission denied (publickey). fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Question

I have followed these instructions below to upload a project.

Global setup:

 Download and install Git
  git config --global user.name \"Your Name\"
         


        

Answer 1

Given that none of the answers here worked for me, I finally tracked down my issue connecting to Bitbucket (or Github, doesn't matter in this case) with ssh -vT git@bitbucket.org.

In my case, the failure was due to using a DSA key instead of RSA, and apparently my SSH client no longer allows that.

debug1: Skipping ssh-dss key /c/Users/USER/.ssh/id_dsa for not in PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes

The solution was to add this to .ssh/config:

Host *
    PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-dss

This elegantly appends the ssh-dss key type to all existing accepted public key types and after this was done, git can now ssh into Bitbucket no problem.
