Pardon me for being dense but I've lost my patience, I'm trying to do many things today and getting nowhere with Log4j: ``` C:\tmp>git clone g...@github.com:apache/logging-log4j2.git foo Cloning into 'foo'... The authenticity of host 'github.com (140.82.112.4)' can't be established. ED25519 key fingerprint is SHA256:+DiY3wvvV6TuJJhbpZisF/zLDA0zPMSvHdkr4UvCOqU. This key is not known by any other names. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? yes Warning: Permanently added 'github.com' (ED25519) to the list of known hosts. g...@github.com: Permission denied (publickey). fatal: Could not read from remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists. ``` Did you mean for "g...@github.com" to stand in for something else?
