I have 3 GitHub
repositories: {repo1, repo2, repo3}, each one with a different public key as Deploy key
under each repository settings.
On a remote Linux server (I connect to it via PuTTY from my local Windows 7 machine) I have all these repositories configured with the file: ~/.ssh/config
following this guide:
https://gist.github.com/jexchan/2351996
They works perfectly there, so don't worry about that.
My problem is on my local computer, where I'm using Windows 7
with TortoiseGit
.
For each repository I have TortoiseGit configured like below:
If I create a key pair for the repo1 and set it up on GitHub, the remote Linux server and my local Windows 7 machine works properly. But if I do the same for repo2 then my local Windows 7 with TortoiseGit shows up the following error if I try to connect somehow with GitHub (remote Linux server keeps working):
It is like when I configure a new GitHub
repo with TortoiseGit
the previous configurations messed up.
The remote Linux server always keep working.
You have several options:
1) Use PuTTY sessions as described in https://stackoverflow.com/a/29183147/3906760 and the TortoiseGit FAQ
2) Use OpenSSH as SSH client (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/32115724/3906760).
3) Use https with a credential helper and put the username into the URL like
https://[email protected]/path
(also see https://stackoverflow.com/a/34611311/3906760).
