Enhance SSH Authentication Documentation with Best Practices

Overview

This issue is a follow-up to #353 to implement comprehensive documentation improvements regarding SSH authentication best practices in MyCoder.

Proposed Changes

Based on the analysis in the attached report, we should make the following improvements to our documentation:

  1. Add a new section "SSH vs. HTTPS Authentication" to clearly recommend SSH over HTTPS
  2. Expand the existing SSH Passphrase section with more comprehensive guidance for all platforms
  3. Add a troubleshooting section for common SSH issues
  4. Update the GitHub Action documentation with better SSH guidance
  5. Add links to GitHub's official SSH documentation

Detailed Recommendations

See the comprehensive report for detailed implementation recommendations: SSH Authentication Recommendations Report

Benefits

  • Clearly establishes SSH as the recommended authentication method
  • Provides better platform coverage (Windows, macOS, Linux)
  • Offers troubleshooting guidance for common issues
  • Aligns with GitHub's security best practices

Implementation Priority

  1. Add the "SSH vs. HTTPS Authentication" section
  2. Expand the existing SSH Passphrase section
  3. Add the troubleshooting section
  4. Update the GitHub Action documentation
