  13. Programming related

    • Git setup

    • Personal account with SSH keys

      Step 1. Goto .ssh folder and generate ssh keys for all your github accounts

      cd ~/.ssh

# If no present create one
mkdir .ssh

      Step 2. Make rsa key pair

      # For personal email ID
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "mali.prathamesh82@gmail.com"

# Save as personal ID
id_rsa_pratham82

# For work email ID
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "prathamesh@edulab.in"

# Save as work ID
id_rsa_prathameshedulab

      Step 3. Copy and paste the RSA key to the respective github account

      cat id_rsa_pratham82.pub
# Copy the ouput to SSH Keys/ Add new

cat id_rsa_prathameshedulab.pub
# Copy the ouput to SSH Keys/ Add new

      Step 4: Create config file in .ssh folder And add below configs

      vim config

# Copy paste the following
# Personal account - default config
Host github.com-pratham82
 HostName github.com
 User git
 IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_pratham82
# Work account
Host github.com-prathameshedulab
 HostName github.com
 User git
 IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_prathameshedulab

      Step 5. Make a common .gitconfig

      vim ~/.gitconfig
# Copy pasete the follwoing in the file
[user]
  name = pratham82
  email = mali.prathamesh82@gmail.com
[includeIf "gitdir:~/Work/"]
  path = ~/Work/.gitconfig

# Making gitcofig for "Work" direcotry
cd ~/Work
vim .gitconfig
[user]
  name = prathameshedulab
  email = prathamesh@edulab.in

      Step 6. Remove all identities

      # Go to .ssh
cd ~/.ssh

# Remove all identites
ssh-add -D

# Add the identites
ssh-add id_rsa_pratham82
ssh-add id_rsa_prathameshedulab

# Verify if all identites are added
ssh-add -l

      Step 7: Check configuration is right by pinging to github with below commands

      # Check with personl account
ssh -T github.com-pratham82

# Check with work account
ssh -T github.com-prathameshedulab
