- quickthrower2 5y agoThere is a github client you can download, I wonder if that does this all for you? If not it should.
- SahAssar 5y agoIIRC the github client (by default) uses HTTP auth, not SSH auth. It works for using the client, but not if you use other tooling that needs repo access (like pushing from your IDE). At least that was the case with github for windows last I used it a few years ago.
