You should be getting: The authenticity of host 'trac.sagemath.org (128.208.178.249)' can't be established. ECDSA key fingerprint is 21:ba:10:2a:59:cd:7d:36:f7:4c:52:bf:fc:5e:0e:07. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?
Type "yes" when you see it the first time. The trac server's public key is then saved and used in future connections to avoid man-in-the-middle attacks. The "content of the public key file" is the whole content. The "foo@bar.local" is just an arbitrary comment for you to remember what that key is, anything else must match exactly.
