Remote anonymous access to repository denied?

Question

I\'m on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and just upgraded my git from 1.7-something to version 1.8.4. The problem is when I want to push to a GitHub repo

If you want to use your SSH key, you must use the following format:

$  on MBP-0x00A3 in ~/misc/vim_dotfiles
✭ (git) working on branch alternate ✔
❯❯ git remote -v
origin  https://github.com//vim_dotfiles.git (fetch)
origin  https://github.com//vim_dotfiles.git (push)

$  on MBP-0x00A3 in ~/misc/vim_dotfiles
✭ (git) working on branch alternate ✔
❯❯ git remote add personal git@github.com:/vim_dotfiles.git

$  on MBP-0x00A3 in ~/misc/vim_dotfiles
✭ (git) working on branch alternate ✔
❯❯ git remote -v
origin  https://github.com//vim_dotfiles.git (fetch)
origin  https://github.com//vim_dotfiles.git (push)
personal    git@github.com:/vim_dotfiles.git (fetch)
personal    git@github.com:/vim_dotfiles.git (push)

Now you can do:

user@host:~$ git push personal 

and it will force use of your SSH key.
