git clone with authentication

Hey @Ultchad,

I'm sorry, but it's hard to understand what the issue is here.
Could you please be more specific about the problem faced when cloning using ssh?

Also, there is a good article about ssh/https git in the github docs.

[Ultchad]

with this command:
git clone [email protected]:snipsco/hermes-protocol.git
I need login to github for clone the repository, but it's work

with:
git clone https://github.com/snipsco/hermes-protocol.git no login

But I do not know if it was a desire on your part.
If it's normally, sorry for this issue. it's can be close

@Ultchad Thanks for clarifying! 👍

I don't have any strong feeling about that, @anthonyray WDYT?

Hi @Ultchad ,

You have two possibilities to clone the hermes-protocol repository (as with every repository hosted on Github btw).

• You can clone with HTTPSurls (git clone https://github.com/snipsco/hermes-protocol.git)
• You can clone using SSH (git clone [email protected]:snipsco/hermes-protocol.git)

To be able to clone with SSH, you first need to generate a SSH keypair, and add the generated public key to your Github account. When you do so, cloning will not prompt you for your login & password.

When you use to clone using HTTPS you will be prompted for your login and password.

In the documentation, I mention to use SSH to clone the repository, but you can choose any method.

I'm closing for now, let us know if you run into any problem.
