Private Github Packages "Host key verification failed"

[ldiebold]

I can't for the life of me figure out how to get private github repositories to work with vercel.

Here's what I tried (among many other things)

~/.now.npmrc

//registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com/ldiebold
//npm.pkg.github.com/:_authToken=my_awesome_secret

Add npmrc as a secret

now secrets add vercel-npmrc "$(cat ~/.now.npmrc)"

now.json

{
  "build": {
    "env": {
      "NPM_RC": "@vercel-npmrc"
    }
  }
}

And the full error...

Is it possible this error has to do with vercel trying to use a ssh git origin instead of https?

Any help would be greatly appreciated :), I've been at this for days now!
