Answer 1

If you are using a linux machine then check,

• do you have Openssh installed
• if you do, then do you have an existing public key otherwise you'll have to generate one.
• is your public key added to your github account.

Generating new SSH keys and adding them to my Github account solved my problem. You can look into this page for more details. GitHelp.
