git for Beginners: Using SSH Keys with GitHub (Part 12)
SSH is a method for secure login and file transfer.
If you go over to GitHub and click on the "Clone or Download" button on a repository, you'll see that it says "Clone with SSH. Use a password-protected SSH key."
You can think of this like a secret handshake that your computer has with GitHub. The benefit is that it's secure and you don't have to constantly enter your username and password.
