Clone repo SSH method

Skip this if you don't plan on getting SSH access to github repos and clone with HTTP instead

generate ssh

ssh-keygen -q -t ed25519 -N '' -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_github <<<y >/dev/null 2>&1

# echo 'older machines might not support ed25519, then use RSA with 4096 bit key'
# echo  'ssh-keygen -q -t rsa -b 4096 -N '' -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa_github <<<y >/dev/null 2>&1'

# add the output to https://github.com/settings/ssh/new
cat ~/.ssh/id_*_github.pub
# add to https://github.com/settings/ssh/new

activate ssh

echo 'adding key to ssh-agent'
eval `ssh-agent -s`  # if using fish shell run: eval "$(ssh-agent -c)"
