How to git push from terminal using SSH??

[connect-24]

I'm new to github, and I cannot figure out how to push a repository to github using git push -u origin main. I tried searching on youtube but didn't find a simple enough video. I get this error:

...
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

Thanks in advance for helping 💖

Since you have already tried some stuff, I'm guessing you know how to use git properly and also commands to push to origin. The issue could be either you don't have a repository with the same name in your GitHub account, or your SSH isn't set up. Let me explain in the simplest way to fix this:

• Open terminal and run ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "<[email protected]>"
• If on windows run type %userprofile%\.ssh\id_ed25519.pub
• If on Linux or Mac run cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
• Copy the entire output (starts with ssh-ed25519...)
• Open GitHub and navigate to Settings > SSH and GPG keys or click here
• Click on New SSH key and paste the output in the input-box.

Now you should be able to use git push -u origin main. If it still isn't working, you can try this:

• Create a repository in your GitHub account if you haven't already.
• Run git clone [email protected]:<your-username>/<repository>.git

Make your changes, commit, then try git push again. that should work. If it still fails, share the full error message so we can understand the main issue.
