Git - SSH remotes with GitHub Desktop

问题:

I am using GitHub Desktop on Windows 10. I initially cloned a repo using its HTTPS URL, but now our organisation have advised that we must use the SSH URL instead. So I have changed this over.

I have also copied the contents of my public SSH key (id_rsa.pub) in to my GitHub account. My SSH key is protected by a passphrase.

Now when I try to do to a sync in GitHub Desktop I get the following error:

In Git Bash it works fine (it asks me for my passphrase before each pull/push though). Any idea what I need to do to make this work?

回答1:

As more recently seen in "Permission failure cloning in Git in Windows", try and launch GitHub Desktop after:

git config --global core.sshCommand "'C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH\ssh.exe'"

That will ensure GitHub Desktop to use the right OpenSSH ssh.exe, instead of an internal one, as seen in desktop/desktop issue 5641.
