Subject: Re: [gmat-nav] Git question
Here's a more wordy explanation:
I set up SSH (Secure SHell) keys for each machine out here, using the Linux
utility "ssh-keygen". (On Windows, PUTTY has a similar utility, I think.)
That creates 2 files: a public key file, and a private key that works with it
and that gets places in my .ssh folder in my user account folder (on all
platforms, that location is the same). The public key is then added to the
systems that I connect to. I set it up for both remote login ("ssh-add" on
Linux)) and for git usage (procedure described below). Then, when I try to
login or perform git operations, there is a handshake that occurs, managed by
the ssh service, to validate the public key against my private key. If the
validation passes, I have the requested access.
Out here, I have my git server managed using a tool called gitolite. When I
need to add repo access to a new machine, all I need to do is add the public
key file to the correct folder in the gitolite repository, and the magic
happens. (There is a separate file where I specify access rights on a
repository by repository -- and potentially branch by branch -- level.) I
think the process is similar for raw ssh access to git -- add your public key
to the appropriate folder -- but I haven't tried it without the gitolite
intermediary.

Not sure what a “shared key” is. If I google it, will I be able to figure out
how to do it myself? Thanks,

That's what I do out here as well -- haven't set it up for my account on
mesajade, though, because there is enough VPN hoop jumping that I haven't
bothered to try putting my keys there.

If you’re using a server you can log into with SSH, you can set up a shared
key. That’s how I do it – no passwords in sight!
You can do that with GitLab too.

If you use a client like SourceTree it will do that. For “bare” command-line
git, I’m not sure it’s possible.

Hi All,

I looked around and coudnt figure it out.
Thanks,
