GitHub Access#
In order to use GitHub on the lab server, you will need to use an SSH key set up in your GitHub account.
First check that you have an SSH key set up on your local machine for your GitHub account. If you don't, follow the guide on generating a new SSH key and adding it to the ssh-agent.
You can then follow GitHub Docs' guide on using SSH agent forwarding to forward your SSH key to the lab server.
- On step 2 under "Setting up SSH agent forwarding", add the
ForwardAgent yes
line under the lab server alias you set up in your~/.ssh/config
file.
