I started studying Git and GitHub.
And now, I could create my repository to practice and I could push commits to origin repository(in GitHub) on git bash.
But when I tried to push on Visual Studio Code, I have received this error
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
and failed to push to origin repository.
but I already remote local repository to origin repository with ssh key on git bash and I could complete push and pull between local repository and origin repository.
In others' case, they were asked GitHub credentials to push or sync, but in my case, I could not be asked any credentials like ssh key.
In this case, What should I do? Thank you.
I thought the answer by @codewizard was the correct one. Seems VS Code uses 'id_rsa.pub' key only, it was not using my other ssh key pair that git.exe was configured to use.(This key wasn't name id_rsa.) However after generating a new id_rsa key pair, I still got permission denied (publickey).
I Found my answer on this blog entry, seems vs code doesn't have a ssh-agent to interact with?

The solution on the blog being
I used git-bash
start the ssh agent: eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
then "code"
to launch VS Code
Note: As @JoshuaH points out in the comments, you can create a windows shortcut to simply the steps above.
cmd /c start-ssh-agent & code
git fetch started working. However I started to get a openssh passphrase box every x minutes(untimed)
so I then rechecked the key was added
again using git-bash
then "ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa"
then git config --global credential.helper wincred
If you want a password prompt every time, then ignore the two previous commands and disable autofetch in VS Code's settings.
"git.autofetch": "true"
in VS code settings to "git.autofetch": "false"
