Create an SSH key. Follow these steps if you don't already have an SSH key for an account. If you do have an SSH key and you want to generate another key, you'll have to use the terminal because you can't use Sourcetree to create a second key. Creating an SSH key looks something like this: From the Sourcetree menu, select Preferences. Go to Windows Start menu → All Programs → PuTTY → PuTTYgen. Creating a new key pair for authentication. To create a new key pair, select the type of key to generate from the bottom of the screen (using SSH-2 RSA with 2048 bit key size is good for most people; another good well-known alternative is ECDSA).

Connect to your Git repos through SSH on macOS, Linux, or Windows to securely connect using HTTPS authentication. On Windows, we recommended the use of Git Credential Managers or Personal Access Tokens.

Important

SSH URLs have changed, but old SSH URLs will continue to work. If you have already set up SSH, you should update your remote URLs to the new format:

• Verify which remotes are using SSH by running git remote -v in your Git client.
• Visit your repository on the web and select the Clone button in the upper right.
• Select SSH and copy the new SSH URL.
• In your Git client, run: git remote set-url <remote name, e.g. origin> <new SSH URL>. Alternatively, in Visual Studio, go to Repository Settings, and edit your remotes.

Note

As of Visual Studio 2017, SSH can be used to connect to Git repos.

How SSH key authentication works

SSH public key authentication works with an asymmetric pair of generated encryption keys. The public key is shared with Azure DevOps and used to verify the initial ssh connection. The private key is kept safe and secure on your system.

Set up SSH key authentication

The following steps cover configuration of SSH key authentication on the following platforms:

• Linux
• macOS running at least Leopard (10.5)
• Windows systems running Git for Windows

Configure SSH using the command line. bash is the common shell on Linux and macOS and the Git for Windows installation adds a shortcut to Git Bash in the Start menu.Other shell environments will work, but are not covered in this article.

Step 1: Create your SSH keys

Note

If you have already created SSH keys on your system, skip this step and go to configuring SSH keys.

The commands here will let you create new default SSH keys, overwriting existing default keys. Before continuing, check your~/.ssh folder (for example, /home/jamal/.ssh or C:Usersjamal.ssh) and look for the following files:

• id_rsa
• id_rsa.pub

If these files exist, then you have already created SSH keys. You can overwrite the keys with the following commands, or skip this step and go to configuring SSH keys to reuse these keys.

Create your SSH keys with the ssh-keygen command from the bash prompt. This command will create a 2048-bit RSA key for use with SSH. You can give a passphrasefor your private key when prompted—this passphrase provides another layer of security for your private key.If you give a passphrase, be sure to configure the SSH agent to cache your passphrase so you don't have to enter it every time you connect.

This command produces the two keys needed for SSH authentication: your private key ( id_rsa ) and the public key ( id_rsa.pub ). It is important to never share the contents of your private key. If the private key iscompromised, attackers can use it to trick servers into thinking the connection is coming from you.

Step 2: Add the public key to Azure DevOps Services/TFS

Associate the public key generated in the previous step with your user ID.

1. Open your security settings by browsing to the web portal and selecting your avatar in the upper right of theuser interface. Select Security in the menu that appears.

2. Select SSH public keys, and then select + New Key.

3. Copy the contents of the public key (for example, id_rsa.pub) that you generated into the Public Key Data field.

   Important

   Avoid adding whitespace or new lines into the Key Data field, as they can cause Azure DevOps Services to use an invalid public key. When pasting in the key, a newline often is added at the end. Be sure to remove this newline if it occurs.

4. Give the key a useful description (this description will be displayed on the SSH public keys page for your profile) so that you can remember it later. Select Save Descargar prtg network monitor full crack pc. to store the public key. Once saved, you cannot change the key. You can delete the key or create a new entry for another key. There are no restrictions on how many keys you can add to your user profile. /fun-run-2-generator-key.html.

Step 3: Clone the Git repository with SSH

Note

To connect with SSH from an existing cloned repo, see updating your remotes to SSH.

1. Copy the SSH clone URL from the web portal. In this example, the SSL clone URL is for a repo in an organization named fabrikam-fiber, as indicated by the first part of the URL after dev.azure.com.

   Note

   Project URLs have changed with the release of Azure DevOps Services and now have the format dev.azure.com/{your organization}/{your project}, but you can still use the existing visualstudio.com format. For more information, see VSTS is now Azure DevOps Services.

2. Run git clone from the command prompt.

SSH may display the server's SSH fingerprint and ask you to verify it.

For cloud-hosted Azure DevOps Services, where clone URLs contain either ssh.dev.azure.com or vs-ssh.visualstudio.com, the fingerprint should match one of the following formats:

• MD5: 97:70:33:82:fd:29:3a:73:39:af:6a:07:ad:f8:80:49 (RSA)
• SHA256: SHA256:ohD8VZEXGWo6Ez8GSEJQ9WpafgLFsOfLOtGGQCQo6Og (RSA)These fingerprints are also listed in the SSH public keys page.

For self-hosted instances of Azure DevOps Server, you should verify that the displayed fingerprint matches one of the fingerprints in the SSH public keys page.

SSH displays this fingerprint when it connects to an unknown host to protect you from man-in-the-middle attacks.Once you accept the host's fingerprint, SSH will not prompt you again unless the fingerprint changes.

When you are asked if you want to continue connecting, type yes. Git will clone the repo and set up the origin remote to connect with SSH for future Git commands.

Tip

Avoid trouble: Windows users will need to run a command to have Git reuse their SSH key passphrase.

Questions and troubleshooting

Q: After running git clone, I get the following error. What should I do?

Host key verification failed.fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

A: Manually record the SSH key by running:ssh-keyscan -t rsa domain.com >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts

Q: How can I have Git remember the passphrase for my key on Windows?

A: Run the following command included in Git for Windows to start up the ssh-agent process in Powershell or the Windows Command Prompt. ssh-agent will cacheyour passphrase so you don't have to provide it every time you connect to your repo.

If you're using the Bash shell (including Git Bash), start ssh-agent with:

Q: I use PuTTY as my SSH client and generated my keys with PuTTYgen. Can I use these keys with Azure DevOps Services?

A: Yes. Load the private key with PuTTYgen, go to Conversions menu and select Export OpenSSH key.Save the private key file and then follow the steps to set up non-default keys.Copy your public key directly from the PuTTYgen window and paste into the Key Data field in your security settings.

Q: How can I verify that the public key I uploaded is the same key as I have locally?

A: You can verify the fingerprint of the public key uploaded with the one displayed in your profile through the following ssh-keygen command run against your public key usingthe bash command line. You will need to change the path and the public key filename if you are not using the defaults.

You can then compare the MD5 signature to the one in your profile. This check is useful if you have connection problems or have concerns about incorrectlypasting in the public key into the Key Data field when adding the key to Azure DevOps Services.

Q: How can I start using SSH in a repository where I am currently using HTTPS?

A: You'll need to update the origin remote in Git to change over from a HTTPS to SSH URL. Once you have the SSH clone URL, run the following command:

Gen Ssh Key

You can now run any Git command that connects to origin.

Q: I'm using Git LFS with Azure DevOps Services and I get errors when pulling files tracked by Git LFS.

A: Azure DevOps Services currently doesn't support LFS over SSH. Use HTTPS to connect to repos with Git LFS tracked files.

Q: How can I use a non default key location, i.e. not ~/.ssh/id_rsa and ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub?

A: To use keys created with ssh-keygen in a different place than the default, you do two things:

1. The keys must be in a folder that only you can read or edit. If the folder has wider permissions, SSH will not use the keys.
2. You must let SSH know the location of the keys. You make SSH aware of keys through the ssh-add command, providing the full path to the private key.

On Windows, before running ssh-add, you will need to run the following command from included in Git for Windows:

This command runs in both Powershell and the Command Prompt. If you are using Git Bash, the command you need to use is:

You can find ssh-add as part of the Git for Windows distribution and also run it in any shell environment on Windows.

On macOS and Linux you also must have ssh-agent running before running ssh-add, but the command environment on these platforms usuallytakes care of starting ssh-agent for you.

Q: I have multiple SSH keys. How do I use different SSH keys for different SSH servers or repos?

A: Generally, if you configure multiple keys for an SSH client and connect to an SSH server, the client can try the keys one at a time until the server accepts one.

However, this doesn't work with Azure DevOps for technical reasons related to the SSH protocol and how our Git SSH URLs are structured. Azure DevOps will blindly accept the first key that the client provides during authentication. If that key is invalid for the requested repo, the request will fail with the following error:

For Azure DevOps, you'll need to configure SSH to explicitly use a specific key file. One way to do this to edit your ~/.ssh/config file (for example, /home/jamal/.ssh or C:Usersjamal.ssh) as follows:

Q: What notifications may I receive about my SSH keys?

A: Whenever you register a new SSH Key with Azure DevOps Services, you will receive an email notification informing you that a new SSH key has been added to your account.

Q: What do I do if I believe that someone other than me is adding SSH keys on my account?

A: If you receive a notification of an SSH key being registered and you did not manually upload it to the service, your credentials may have been compromised.

The next step would be to investigate whether or not your password has been compromised. Changing your password is always a good first step to defend against this attack vector. If you’re an Azure Active Directory user, talk with your administrator to check if your account was used from an unknown source/location.

Use these steps when you will be using a Microsoft Windows system to SSH connect to the test Linux VM that you will be deploying into your Microsoft Azure subscription.

When you create the test VM in Microsoft Azure, you will use the contents of the generated public key file. If you already have an existing SSH key pair on the Microsoft Windows system that you will use to connect with the test VM, then you can skip this step and proceed with creating the test VM, as described in Create the Test Virtual Machine in Your Microsoft Azure Subscription.

By following these steps, you generate the SSH key pair, copy the public key file's contents so you can use it when creating the test VM, and load the private key into the PuTTY Pageant tool. Pageant is an SSH authentication agent that can hold your private keys in memory. By holding the private key in memory, the private key is automatically applied against any SSH session from that Microsoft Windows system, making it easier to use.

A Microsoft Windows system does not have SSH key-pair software installed on it by default. Verify that SSH key-pair generating software is installed on the system you are planning to use. You can use any SSH key-pair generating software. The steps below describe using the PuTTY software on Microsoft Windows to create the SSH key pair. You can obtain the PuTTY software from www.putty.org. After the installation, the PuTTY suite of tools is available. The following screenshot shows an example of the PuTTY tools in the Start menu.

Generate Ssh Key Windows Jenkins

1. On your Microsoft Windows system, launch PuTTYgen (the PuTTY key generator).
   On Microsoft Windows 10, the PuTTYgen choice in the Start menu looks like .
   The PuTTY Key Generator window displays. As highlighted in the following screenshot, the goal is to generate a public-private key pair, of type SSH-2 RSA, and having 2048 bits.
   
2. Verify that SSH-2RSA is selected, 2048 is set for the number of bits, and then click Generate. The window changes to the Key window that displays a progress bar.
3. Move your cursor around randomly in the blank area underneath the progress bar. Moving your cursor around in the area adds required randomness into the process.
   
   
4. Save the private key to the system by entering a key passphrase and click Save private key.
   Note: Using a key passphrase is an optional best practice. However, if you click Save private key without entering a key passphrase, a pop-up window asks you to confirm whether you want to save the private key without a key passphrase.

   
   
   The private key is saved as a PPK file. After you click Save private key, you can browse to a directory in the local system, type a file name, and save the file.
   
5. Use the Save public key button to save the public key to a location where you can copy it from when you create the test VM.
6. Launch Pageant, the PuTTY SSH authentication agent.
   On Microsoft Windows 10, the Pageant choice in the Start menu looks like . When you click it, the Pageant icon of a computer wearing a hat is loaded into the system tray.
   The following screenshot shows the Pageant icon loaded into a Microsoft Windows 10 system tray.
   
7. Add your private key to Pageant by right-clicking that system tray icon, clicking Add Key, and using the file selection window to navigate to and select your saved private key (PPK) file.
   
   

   Note: If you specified a key passphrase when you saved the private key file earlier, a box is displayed for you to type that passphrase.
