Get SSH to work on Windows for Github and BitBucket

Install git

I chose native Windows Secure Channel Library
Previously I was having a lot of trouble getting setup. I am not sure if the SSL/TLS library caused this or not.

Using Git Bash

ssh-keygen with passphrase
clip < <PUBLIC KEY> paste into Github or BitBucket settings
ssh -T [email protected] to add key to known_hosts

Multiple hosts

Add config (no ext) file to .ssh folder (to handle mutiple identities):
ssh -T [email protected]
git clone [email protected]:<ALIAS>/<REPOSITORY_NAME>.git

Config file

Host github.com
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/github
	
Host bitbucket.org
    HostName bitbucket.org
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/bitbucket
	
Host bitbucket.org-personal
    HostName bitbucket.org
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/bitbucket-personal
