Hello Everybody,
Thank you for participating in this morning's session about the github migration. Here
are some resources to help with migration:
1) Fork a repo:
https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo
Step 3 talks about multiple remotes. In our case, the remotes are fedorahosted and github.
The man page for git-remote is also helpful for this.
2) SSH Key Generation:
https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys
I recommend using -b flag with a value higher or equal 2048 and also use a password for
the key. If you want to add a password to the key but not be prompted every time look into
ssh-add (Step 2 briefly mentions it).
3) SSH Configuration:
https://gist.github.com/jexchan/2351996
This gist shows a way to configure the ssh client to support multiple keys and host
specific keys.
This morning I was running into an issue with the ssh client because I had ForwardAgent
enabled. So the ssh client was picking up the wrong key chain from the host I originated
the ssh connection chain.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or need help with the migration.
Thank you,
Stefan Negrea
