This beginner tutorial will go over how to use SSH Keys with Github. This will allow you to use SSH for basic Git commands instead of using the HTTPS protocol. This video was created on Mac OS but the same method will be used on Linux and Windows. The key generation process will also be the same for using SSH Keys on other platforms such as Gitlab and Bitbucket.
Windows users: If you do not have a terminal installed, I would suggest setting up Windows Subsystem For Linux or Git Bash before proceeding, this will allow you to follow along with all of the commands. Links below ⬇
