Git SSH public key authentication failed with git on Azure DevOps

Question

I am trying to push a git repo from PowerShell into an Azure DevOps repo, and I keep getting different auth errors when trying to push it.

I am hoping somebody can sh

Answer 1

When you paste in the key on the settings page of Azure DevOps don't change anything including the space appended at the end of the public key.

Answer 2

Before this I had already tried the other answers, but nothing worked. At last, this article had the solution for me in Fedora.

Running ssh with the -v switch (ssh -v -T git@ssh.dev.azure.com) revealed this error:

debug1: send_pubkey_test: no mutual signature algorithm

Workaround is to add this line to the client configuration file (~/.ssh/config):

PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +rsa-sha2-256,rsa-sha2-512

Answer 3

Sign into your Azure DevOps. Go to Repos > Files, then click Clone. Finally, under the HTTPS tab, click Generate Git Credentials.

Answer 4

I have the same problem.

My solution was:

The path while I try to use sudo git clone... doesn't have permission to access my public and private key location: \home\localuser\.ssh\....

To solve this, I change ownership of the destination path to the same user:group ware my keys are stored and avoid to use sudo git clone...., now im using git clone without sudo and everything works.

I hope you understand...
