how to configure multiple github or version control accounts, access the content without password

generate ssh public and private key, to follow the command prompt

-t ed25519: This specifies the type of key to create

-C "label": The -C option is used to add a comment to the key,label for the SSH key, ii will appedn end of pub key content

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "label"

once excute the above command prompt will ask file name

then 2 file will be create, one end with .pub extension and two without any extension

it is used to start the SSH agent and set up the environment variables necessary for the SSH agent to function within your current shell session

eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"

add private keys to the SSH agent, allowing the SSH agent to use those keys for authentication when connecting to SSH servers

ssh-add private_key_file_name

ensure keys are added

ssh-add -l

create file name as 'config' without any extension

example ssh configuration file

github

Account1

User git Host github.com-personal HostName github.com IdentityFile ~/.ssh/private_key_file(available wihtout any extension)

Account2

User git Host github.com-work HostName github.com IdentityFile ~/.ssh/private_key_file(available wihtout any extension)

gitlab

Account3

User git Host gitlab.com-personal Hostname gitlab.com IdentityFile ~/.ssh/private_key_file(available wihtout any extension)

add public key to version control hosting environment

open public key copy past the related version control tool (gitlab.com or github.com)

if github go to github setting > select ssh and gpc key page > add new ssh key, past you public key

if gitlab go to github profile > ssh keys > add new ssh key, past you public key

ensure ssh connection

ssh -T Host

the Host is name of config file Host value, example

ssh -T github.com-personal

how to clone repo with ssh connection

git clone git@github.com:xxx/xxx.git

This part specifies the Git username (git) and the host (github.com). In this context, it signifies the user (git) that is accessing the github server.

xxx/xxx.git: This part specifies the path to the repository. The first set before the slash (/) represents the namespace or user/group where the repository resides. xxx.git is the name of the repository itself.

modify the url like below we connect our git account as we config the file above

git clone git@github.com-personal:xxx/xxx.git

the above modified url will clone the account1 related repo, with asking password
