Ansible and Git Permission denied (publickey) at Git Clone

Question

I have a playbook where I am trying to clone from a private repo (GIT) to a server.

I have setup ssh forwarding and when I ssh into the server and try to manually clone

Answer 1

On a localhost-only -scenario ForwardAgent is completely useless, as it would forward the agent only to a remote host.

Even if git works from command-line when run manually, it doesn't work from Ansible no matter what. The only working solution I found was to convert git into command, like: - command: /usr/bin/git clone git@github
