When you use git from the command line, use the following steps:

Accessing the Repository

• On Windows, launch Git Bash, on MacOS or Linux, launch a terminal.
• If you have not done so on your machine, create a COMP167 directory in your home directory using mkdir ~/COMP167
• NOTE: This command only needs to be run once on each machine, to create the directory.
• Navigate to your directory using cd ~/COMP167.
• If your repository already exists locally, navigate to it using cd [your-repository-name], if you want to check the contents of your directory, use ls.
• If your repository does not exist locally, get the clone link from the "Clone or Download" button on the GitHub Repository.

github recently switched to an https scheme as the default for cloning repos. as a side effect you may suddenly be prompted for a 'Username' and 'Password' when you push where, previously, you were able to do so without typing in credentials. the solution is to cause git to cache https credentials which is easy, since git uses curl under the covers

in your home directory create a file called '.netrc', for example

/Users/ahoward/.netrc

in it put these contents

jexchan

Multiple SSH Keys settings for different github account

create different public key

create different ssh key according the article Mac Set-Up Git

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "[email protected]"
