Git enter long passphrase for every push

问题:

Every time I try to push anything to GitHub it asks me the address [e-mail]:... and after that it wants the passphrase. Is there a way to automate this?

I am using Linux Ubuntu.

You can use ssh-agent to remember your passphrase (Gnome automatically runs this for you, normally...).

$ ssh-agent bash
$ ssh-add 
Enter passphrase for /home/elyobo/.ssh/id_rsa: 
Identity added: /home/elyobo/.ssh/id_rsa (/home/elyobo/.ssh/id_rsa)

From now on, from within the terminal that you run this, your pass phrase will be remembered.

Ideally you'd get it working automatically, so all shells running within gnome would work; check out Gnome Keyring.

It is because you are using HTTPS (something like https://github.com/felipelalli/private.git) instead SSH (something like [e-mail]:felipelalli/private.git).

If need to clone the SSH and then authorize your machine following theses steps: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys

Another way to use the ssh-agent and ssh-add commands to add your private identity to the authentication agent.

$ eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
Agent pid 1174
$ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Enter passphrase for /home/james/.ssh/id_rsa: 
Identity added: /home/james/.ssh/id_rsa (/home/james/.ssh/id_rsa)
