Hi lut! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.
The Github article https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys/ says that "Shell access" should not be an issue? What could the problem be?
git remote show origin
?
Try and redefine the ssh url for remote origin:
git remote set-url origin git@github.com:lut/EvolutionApp.git
And try again.
Only git remote set-url
can change an existing remote URL (as opposed to git remote add
, to add a new remote name and URL)
Here, the issue was the URL of the existing remote 'origin
', EvolutionApp
: it needed to be replaced by a valid one.
Using git config url."ssh://git@github.com/".insteadOf https://github.com/
would not have helped, considering there was no HTTPS URL in the first place.
You can add this in the ~/.gitconfig
file.
[url "ssh://git@github.com/"]
insteadOf = https://github.com/
Now ssh will be used instead of https.
You might have to add the remote again. That error message happens when Git doesn't know where to push to.
Use git remote -v
check if the remote exists, if not, add it.
Even then if it doesn't work try removing the GIT_SSH
environment variable, this maybe causing the problem.
This can happen if you have an incomplete remote entry in your global config.
Run git config -e --system
, comment out any [remote
entries, re-add the remote, and try again.
check if you are using https
as remote url instead of ssh
. I set my remote url to http
and encountered this issue. After resetting the url to ssh
protocol the problem is gone.
if there is trust issue for android studio or vs code project in git You can give safe permissions like below , with your project path in Ubuntu
git config --global --add safe.directory '_your_project_path'
git config --global --add safe.directory '/data/project/project/MyApp/android_app'
Success story sharing
ssh -T git@github.com
only gives you a "Welcome" message, not an interactive shell.git pull origin master --allow-unrelated-histories
may help.
