Generate public, private key pair

$ cd ~/.ssh
$ ssh-keygenn -t rsa     (continue 'Enter' if you will be asked)
$ ls
id_rsa      id_rsa.pub
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Upload the pub key

1. copy it to clipboard

# if you're mac user
$ cat id_rsa.pub | pbcopy
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

2. access to https://github.com/settings/keys

3. Wite title

4. paste text of the id_rsa.pub to Key textarea.

You already copy it at 1.
