Using SSH keys in Termux for Git

termux. ssh. git.

I need to install a couple of packages.

pkg install openssl-tool
pkg install openssh

Set up your ssh key. I use passphrases.

To have gitlab.com in your git config be recognised by ssh, and to use the particular key for gitlab:

Host gitlab.com
	HostName gitlab.com
	User git
	Port 22
	IdentityFile ~/.ssh/gitlab

To make sure you don't have to keep entering it:

Host *
	AddKeysToAgent yes

And at the start of new Termux session:

eval $(ssh-agent)
ssh-add
