Hi.

I'm trying to test using SSH key to clone a test repository from the cmdline..

I'm screwing up something in following the different sires/examples to
try to setup the SSH key to connect to "Github" for a user/repository.

It appears that the "ssh -vT g...@github.com"  cmd seems to always
request a "passphrase" even though the ssh key was created without a
passphrase.

I've tried the following cmds on a number of different systems/OS,
with the same results.

the cmds are:

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C 'y...@email.com' -f ~/.ssh/github/id_ed25519 -q -N ''

cat ~/.ssh/github/id_ed25519.pub
 -- add the key to the github/ssh new key page

(if you notice, no PASSPHRASE)

the ssh private key file is added to the "config" file

ssh -vT g...@github.com     is run...

.
.
.
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey
debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
debug1: Trying private key: /home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g
debug1: PEM_read_PrivateKey failed
debug1: read PEM private key done: type <unknown>
Enter passphrase for key '/home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g':
debug1: No more authentication methods to try.
Permission denied (publickey).

which seems to ask for a passphrase!!
and then it dies..

I've tried various OS flavors...

looked over different sites..

Anyone with SSH/Fed/Github experience able to provide any thoughts/comments??

I'm sure I'm missing someting subtle, but I can't see it for now.

thanks
