The.pub file is your public key, and the other file is the corresponding private key. If you don’t have these files (or you don’t even have a.ssh directory), you can create them by running a program called ssh-keygen, which is provided with the SSH package on Linux/macOS systems and comes with Git for Windows. With both Tectia SSH and OpenSSH servers, access to an account is granted by adding the public key to a /.ssh/authorizedkeys file on the server. To install the public key, Log into the server, edit the authorizedkeys file with your favorite editor, and cut-and-paste the public key output by the above command to the authorizedkeys file. Ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C 'your github's email' # Creates a new ssh key # Generating public/private rsa key pair. This will generate a key for you.You have to copy that and insert into your Github's account (just one time). Steps how to do It.
