Tips

  • Cloning a specific branch

Clone using ssh-key

For repositories on GitHub

git clone ssh://git@github.com/<user>/<repository name>.git

Push to github without password using ssh-key

If it is asking you for a username and password, your origin remote is pointing at the https url rather than the ssh url.

Change it to ssh.

For example, a github project like Git will have https url

https://github.com/<Username>/<Project>.git

and the ssh one:

git@github.com:<Username>/<Project>.git

You can do:

git remote set-url origin git@github.com:<Username>/<Project>.git

to change the url.
