Error

When trying to git clone or git push I would get the following error:

git@github.com: Permission denied (public key). fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

To fix this, you need github to trust the machine.
On your machine, run:

ssh-keygen

Keep it simple by just pressing Enter, Enter, Enter.

grunt@debian:~/dotfiles$ ssh-keygen
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/grunt/.ssh/id_rsa):
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
