Could not resolve hostname

[schwiet]

I'm running exactly your second example (substituting my own key and repo) and hitting this error:

ssh: Could not resolve hostname github.com:myorganization: Name or service not known

my key and known_hosts file appear fine, I can run

ssh -T git@github
and get
Hi schwiet! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.

One thing, I noticed is that it seems the documented environment variable is GIT_SSH and not GIT_SSH_COMMAND, but unfortunately changing that did not resolve the problem.

github.com:myorganization looks like you haven't specified the host correctly, like maybe you've done ssh://git@github.com:myorganization/myproject.git instead of ssh://git@github.com/myorganization/myproject.git

Also, GIT_SSH and GIT_SSH_COMMAND aren't quite the same thing – in this case we need GIT_SSH_COMMAND so that we can include extra args. See:

@mhart thank you! yes, you are right, I was using the ssh_url directly from the webhooks event, which has the form git@github.com:myorganization/myproject.git, replacing the ":" with "/" restored order. Though, it's not clear to me why git clone git@github.com:myorganization/myproject.git works on my local machine but not in the lambda 🤔
