create the SSH keys.

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "[email protected]"

Host github.com
  HostName github.com
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa

Host mjrulesamrat.github.com
  HostName github.com
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_mjrulesamrat

Other examples of different accounts:

• mjrulesamrat.gitlab.com

• mjrulesamrat.bitbucket.org

Add the Keys to your Repositories Accounts

Add id_rsa_mjrulesamrat.pub to github account ssh keys

cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa_mjrulesamrat.pub

Clone repo and start working..

git clone [email protected]:mjrulesamrat/docker-commands.git

@ritik-agrawal Can you share the clone command which uses your config?

• Get the ssh url from the git repository
• Use command as given below

git clone <ssh-url>

This should work.
Currently this is working for me.

Thanks for the article.
For the Bitbucket, there is a guide here. More information can be found in this guide.

The instructions on the bitbucket article didnt help me either.
