You moved the key but you did not setup the proper file permissions, or did a proper setup of the ssh-agent. If you just generate a new key the gen will take care of that. When you generate is good to have at least a size of 2k, 4k if you want to access more secure environments (some services require minimum 4k). If you don't already have an SSH key, you must generate a new SSH key. If you're unsure whether you already have an SSH key, check for existing keys. If you don't want to reenter your passphrase every time you use your SSH key, you can add your key to the SSH agent, which manages your SSH keys and remembers your passphrase. Generating a new SSH key. Creating your SSH key pair; Adding your SSH public key to GitLab. Create and add your SSH key pair. It is best practice to use Git over SSH instead of Git over HTTP. In order to use SSH, you will need to: Create an SSH key pair; Add your SSH public key to GitLab. Creating your SSH key pair. Go to your command line.

Description

The SSH stands for Secure Shell or Secure Socket Shell used for managing the networks, operating systems and configurations and also authenticates to the GitLab server without using username and password each time. You can set the SSH keys to provide a reliable connection between the computer and GitLab. Before generating ssh keygen, you need to have Git installed in your system.

Creating SSH Key

Step 1 − To create SSH key, open the command prompt and enter the command as shown below −

It will prompt for 'Enter file in which to save the key (//.ssh/id_rsa):', just type file name and press enter. Next a prompt to enter password shows 'Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):'. Enter some password and press enter. You will see the generated SSH key as shown in the below image −

Step 2 − Now login to your GitLab account and click on the Settings option.

Step 3 − To create SSH key, click on the SSH keys tab at left side of the menu.

Step 4 − Now go to C drive, you will see the file with .pub extension which was generated in the first step.

Step 5 − Next open the key.pub file, copy the SSH key and paste it in the highlighted Key box as shown in the below image −

Step 6 − Click on the Add Key button, to add SSH key to your GitLab. You will see the fingerprint (it is a short version of SSH key), title and created date as shown in the image below −
