Answer 1

Note: your ticket on GitHub Support prompted the answer:

You need to give heroku your key. There should be a command to do it. If you can't find it, you'll have to contact their support.

For that, see Graeme Collins's answer (and also Heroku error: "Permission denied (public key)" ):

heroku keys:add ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

See Heroku devcenter for more on that process.
You can then see a list of all keys, including the key’s name, like this:

heroku keys

Note: that suppose you didn't use sudo to generate your keys, as " git clone heroku ssh permission denied " illustrates (where heroku keys:add doesn't work)

More information about your ssh keys in your other GitHub Support ticket.

debug1: Trying private key: /.ssh/identity
debug1: Trying private key: /.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: Trying private key: /.ssh/id_dsa

I'm not sure why it would be looking at /.ssh and not ~/.ssh then.
Try moving your keypair over to that path.

Shouldn't that be:

 git push origin master

? By default, a reference to the cloned repo is called 'origin', not 'heroku'

What does

git remote -v show

display?

It you want, you can reference the distant repo by the heroku name

git remote add heroku git@github.com:git_username/projectname.git
