Github ssh-agent cannot push


I want to Push changes via SSH to my git repo.

git@github.com: Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

I have my ssh-agent up and running. I have my key loaded via ssh-add. It is the right key, I checked a bunch of times. It is also registered in my github.

When I try to git push origin I get the error from the above. It is the correct origin.

I also looked into this a lot and someone said that if you have multiple keys to the same git, it gets confused or something, but I have only one key loaded.

I cloned the repo via ssh aswell.

What should I do? I'm stuck on this for over 4 hours and I can't figure it out.

UPDATE

I've ran ssh -v -T git@github.com and the output is:

Solution

  • If ssh -Tv git@github.com does work, then check if you can contact the remote repo SSH URL with:

    git ls-remote git@github.com:<me>/<myRepo>
    

    Then compare that URL with the one registered in your local repository (git remote -v)
    And if it is the same, check the output of git config -l: look for any directive with insteadOf in it, in case that URL would be changed by something else.
