Hello, this is your host, Archer72 for Hacker Public Radio
In this episode, I get a crash course on git, and thought it would make a good episode. Not actually on git itself, but how to use it on Github and Gitlab.
First off, I am looking for a job, so I thought it would be a great time to brush up on my git knowledge and make a show too. Of course, I am no git expert by any means, but as it has been said in comments Hacker Public Radio is my memory.
You will want to create and ssh key for each Git instance, in this case I will use both Github and Gitlab. A few other sites to host Git files which are Hacker Public Radio's own Gitea on HPR, Notabug and Codeberg
Now lets get started.
ssh-keygenwill create an ed25519 key pair- several years ago this was not yet the default
- add entry to
~/.ssh/configfor each git instance
Host github.com
User git

SSH Keys
