Tortoisegit uses a key with an extension of PPK instead of the RSA key generated by Ssh-keygen. Use the command ssh-keygen-c "e-mail Address"-t RSA generates a key that is not available in Tortoisegit. and git-based development must use the RSA key, so you need to use the Tortoisegit Putty Key Generator tool to generate both the RSA key for Git and the PPK key for Tortoisegit, the configuration steps are as follows:

1) Run the Tortoisegit Start menu Puttygen program, as shown in 2) Click on the "Generate" button, the mouse in the blank space to move back and forth until the progress bar is complete, will automatically give birth to a random key, as shown if necessary, you can set the corresponding access password for the key, is to modify the values of "Key passphrase" and "Confirm passphrase". 3) Select, copy, and paste the contents of the Multi-line text box into the SSH public key of the Git account, which is the key for Git. 4) Click the "Save private Key" button to save the generated key as the private key for tortoisegit (extension. ppk). 5) Run the pageant program in the Tortoisegit Start menu, the program will automatically dock in the taskbar when it is launched, the icon appears, double-click the icon, pop-up Key management list, as shown
