Enable ssh key in github

Enable ssh key in github

Everything through to Step 5.6 where you might encounter a slight snag. If an SSH agent is already be running you could get the following error message when you restart bash

Could not open a connection to your authentication agent

If you do, use the following command to see if more than one ssh-agent process is running

ps aux | grep ssh

If you see more than one ssh-agent service, you will need to kill all of these processes. Use the kill command as follows (the PID will be unique on your computer)

kill <PID>

Example:

kill 1074

After you have removed all of the ssh-agent processes, run the px aux | grep ssh command again to be sure they are gone, then restart Bash.

Voila, you should now get something like this:

Initializing new SSH agent...
succeeded
Enter passphrase for /c/Users/username/.ssh/id_rsa:

Now you can continue on Step 5.7 and beyond.
