default SSH key is the same one for GitHub (since they leak users’ pubkeys anyway), and private repos (eg. hosted GitLab instances) get their own keys. not really sure if it buys any privacy though.
- zie 5y agoUh, "leak" is a strong word. They are PUBLIC keys, to think of them as anything other than public is your mental block. If you share your public key with someone, expect them to publish it publicly. Try thinking of SSH pub keys as identities or usernames and you are more on the right track. I tend to have 1 pubkey per thing I care about, so 1 per github account, 1 per gitlab account, 1 for work, etc.
