For OpenSSH 7.8 up, you have to trick it. Run ssh-keygen -p [-f file] -m pem to purportedly change passphrase, but reuse the old one. Use -P oldpw -N newpw if you want to avoid the prompts, as in a script, but be careful of making your passphrase visible to other users. As a side … Read more
ssh-keygen will generate you a pair of keys, one private and one public. It sounds like you uploaded the wrong one. GitHub wants the public key, typically here: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
No tweaks needed. Just make TortoiseGit point to the same ssh client used by git itself, see the screenshot: This should be C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\ssh.exe in latest version of Git as mentioned by Aleksey Kontsevich in the comments.

This often comes up when you have one GitHub-recognized key (i.e. your “old” key) loaded in an ssh-agent but want to use a different GitHub-recognized key (i.e. your “new” key). ssh offers keys in this order: specified keys that … Read more
Run the following command to retrieve the SHA256 fingerprint of your SSH key (-l means “list” instead of create a new key, -f means “filename”): $ ssh-keygen -lf /path/to/ssh/key So for example, on my machine the command I ran was (using RSA public key): $ ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub 2048 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff /Users/username/.ssh/id_rsa.pub (RSA) To get the … Read more
The OP Josh Smith managed to sort it out: I’d actually needed to add the SSH key from /var/lib/hudson/.ssh/id_rsa.pub for the user (me) into the Gerrit GUI. Then from there it worked like a charm. The username must be the username in Gerrit (the admin account). My original advice is below: What is the user … Read more
For Ubuntu instances: chmod 600 ec2-keypair.pem ssh -v -i ec2-keypair.pem ubuntu@ec2-174-129-185-190.compute-1.amazonaws.com For other instances, you might have to use ec2-user instead of ubuntu. Most EC2 Linux images I’ve used only have the root user created by default. See also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBro0TEAd7g
