Git

Setup

git config --global user.name "Denis Izmaylov"

Configure GitHub

There is 2 ways to configure keys. The first is:

• Create new key:

ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "example@izmy.lv"

• Copy public key:

cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

• Add it to github.com

The second way was just to backup your ~/.ssh before re-install and restore it now. Be aware - private keys should have 0400 access.

Test connection

ssh -T git@github.com
