- Open Git
Bash.
- Paste
the text below, substituting in your GitHub email address.
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your_email@example.com"
This creates a new ssh key, using the provided email as a label.
> Generating public/private rsa key
pair.
- When
you're prompted to "Enter a file in which to save the key,"
press Enter. This accepts the default file location.
> Enter a file in which to save the
key (/c/Users/you/.ssh/id_rsa):[Press enter]
- At
the prompt, type a secure passphrase. For more information, see "Working
with SSH key passphrases".
5. >
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): [Type a passphrase]
> Enter same passphrase again: [Type

Before adding a new SSH key to the ssh-agent to manage your keys, you should
have checked for
existing SSH keys and generated a new SSH
key.
If you have GitHub Desktop installed,
you can use it to clone repositories and not deal with SSH keys. It also comes
with the Git Bash tool, which is the preferred way of running git commands on
Windows.
- Ensure
the ssh-agent is running:
- If
you are using the Git Shell that's installed with GitHub Desktop, the
ssh-agent should be running.
- If you are using another terminal prompt,
such as Git for Windows, you can use the "Auto-launching the
ssh-agent" instructions in "Working with
SSH key passphrases", or start it manually:
o #
start the ssh-agent in the background
o $
eval $(ssh-agent -s)
> Agent pid 59566
- Add
your SSH private key to the ssh-agent. If you created your key with a
different name, or if you are adding an existing key that has a different
name, replace id_rsa in the command with the name of your
private key file.
$ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
After this just add'
clip < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
n then automatic copy created in windows and just use paste in setting screen
clip < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
n then automatic copy created in windows and just use paste in setting screen
Adding a new SSH key to your GitHub account
Copy the SSH key to your clipboard.
If your SSH key
file has a different name than the example code, modify the filename to match
your current setup. When copying your key, don't add any newlines or
whitespace.
$ clip < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
# Copies the contents of the id_rsa.pub
file to your clipboard
Add this in settings of Git from UI.
