Hello,
Here's what I'm trying to do, that i need your help with to make work:
I have 2 github accounts, each with their own SSH key: my home account
(default SSH key) and my work account (alternative SSH key). I can
create a virtual hostname in my ~/.ssh/config like so:
Host work.github.com
Hostname github.com
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa-work
and then clone repos with:
git clone g...@work.github.com/MyCompany/la-repo.git
However, I'm trying to use Go, which needs to access every repo host
as 'github.com', and won't support my little SSH hostname trick by
default.
I found out about the 'insteadOf' setting, and thought it would work.
So I added this to my global git config:
[url "g...@github.com:MyCompany/"]
insteadOf = g...@work.github.com:MyCompany/
and left the SSH hostname setting where it was. Then I tried doing:
git clone git:github.com/MyCompany/la-repo.git
But it won't work. With GIT_TRACE=2, I get:
$ GIT_TRACE=2 git clone g...@github.com:MyCompany/la-repo.git
07:46:27.627557 git.c:344 trace: built-in: git 'clone'
'g...@github.com:MyCompany/la-repo.git'
Cloning into 'la-repo'...
07:46:27.629623 run-command.c:626 trace: run_command: 'ssh'
'g...@github.com' 'git-upload-pack '\''MyCompany/la-repo.git'\'''
ERROR: Repository not found.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks
Regards,
Asfand
