Answer 1

If you only have your git keys, you can add your current SSH public key to Heroku to allow pushing with whatever key is already configured on your local git install:

> heroku keys:add

... and then select id_rsa.pub or whichever key you are using already.

This will allow you to push to github using your existing key.

If you have the private key for the public key already on your Heroku account (listed via heroku keys), you can over-write the default private key in $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa with your Heroku private key.
