Git uses: Linux (Ubuntu 14.04 x64) to install git and configure the connection to GitHub

GitHub is a very good web-code hosting repository, known for a long time, but it has not been used until recently to start using GIT to manage its own documents and code.

Git is a very powerful version management tool that tells you today how to install Git under Linux and configure it to link to a warehouse on GitHub. I installed the environment is Ubuntu 14.04, 64 bit of

1. Install Linux under Installation

Using commands apt-get to install

sudo apt-get install git

2. Configure the user name password

git config--global"xxx"--global"[email Protected]"

At this point, a new file is created in the home directory .gitconfig

3. Add SSH Keys to your GitHub account

1. Generate Keys

   " [email protected] "

   The system will prompt the key to save the location (typically the ~/.SSH directory) and specify the password, keep the default, three consecutive times to enter

2. Copy SSH key to GitHub

Open the file, id_rsa.pub the contents of the file, paste it into the GitHub account Management Add SSH key interface

cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Add with login github Settings SSH and GPG Keys New SSH key

1. Test if the connection is successful

ssh -T [email protected]github.com

Will prompt

The authenticity of host ' github.com (192.30.255.112) ' can ' t be established.
RSA key fingerprint is sha256:xxxxxxxxx.
Is you sure want to continue connecting (yes/no)?

yesyou can enter it directly and then prompt for success:

Hi xxx! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.

However, if the following error occurs:

Host Key verification failed.

Because the [email protected] was not added to Known_hosts, the error occurred, and the solution poked me

Use the following command to resolve the error:

ssh-keyscan-t RSA github.com >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts
