Git and RSA identities
git
Here is the solution I found to be able to use git
with a different RSA identity than the rsa_id
default one.
My repo on github is logback-android
and my user account is espinielli
.
I did generate an SSH key as per github help and named it github_rsa
:
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "your_email@youremail.com" -f github_rsa
I then added the following section in ~/.ssh/config
# github for espinielli
Host github
HostName github.com
User espinielli
IdentityFile /Users/espin/.ssh/github_rsa
From within the repo directory (I cloned it before via http):
$ git remote add gh ssh://git@github.com/espinielli/logback-android.git
And finally I am able to use it like this:
$ git push gh master
