This means, on your local machine, you haven't made any SSH keys. Not to worry. Here's how to fix:
- Open git bash (Use the Windows search. To find it, type "git bash") or the Mac Terminal. Pro Tip: You can use any *nixbased command prompt (but not the default Windows Command Prompt!)
- Type cd ~/.ssh. This will take you to the root directory for Git (LikelyC:\Users\[YOUR-USER-NAME]\.ssh\on Windows)
- Within the .sshfolder, there should be these two files:id_rsaandid_rsa.pub. These are the files that tell your computer how to communicate with GitHub, BitBucket, or any other Git based service. Typelsto see a directory listing. If those two files don't show up, proceed to the next step. NOTE: Your SSH keys must be namedid_rsaandid_rsa.pubin order for Git, GitHub, and BitBucket to recognize them by default.
- To create the SSH keys, type ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "[email protected]". Th
