GitHub Error Message - Permission denied (publickey)

Question

Anybody seen this error and know what to do?

I\'m using the terminal, I\'m in the root, the GitHub repository exists and I don\'t know what to do now.

Answer 1

For me I tried this -

eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"

then I run

ssh-add ~/.ssh/path-to-the-keyfile

and for generating the key you can run

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your_email@example.com"

this will generate the pair of keys (Public and private).

you can store this key to github for more read this Adding a new SSH key to your GitHub account

I hope it will help others :)
