# Troubleshooting

# add Private key to ssh agent using PS
ssh-add C:/Users/oserdyuk/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
# or make sure you are in c:/oserdyuk and run
ssh-add .\.ssh\id_rsa

#if error: Error loading key "C:/Users/oserdyuk/.ssh/id_rsa.pub": invalid format
# you can either overrite key in a right format: (it changes email to oserdyuk@oserdyuk-vm - not sure why)
ssh-keygen -f C:/Users/oserdyuk/.ssh/id_rsa.pub   # click Enter to ignore password

git clone git@github.com:ACloudGuru-Resources/acg-project-azure-resume-starter.git

# to remove keys from SSH agent
ssh-add -D

# service OpenSSH Authentification Agent. Make sure it's running.
C:\WINDOWS\System32\OpenSSH\ssh-agent.exe
# start service in powershell
Start-Service -Name "OpenSSH Authentication Agent"
# check if it started
Get-Service ssh-agent

# start the ssh-agent in the background
eval "$(ssh-agent)"


echo "$(ssh-agent)"

# check whether agent is running or not (GIT)
if ps -p $SSH_AGENT_PID > /dev/null
then
   echo "ssh-agent is already running"
   # Do something knowing the pid exists, i.e. the process with $PID is running
else
eval `ssh-agent -s`
fi


# list all keys that are present in the agent PS or GIT
ssh-add -l



# overwrite the key. Just please enter (to ignore password)
 ssh-keygen -f C:/Users/oserdyuk/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

ssh-add -L # copy the key, place it into GitHub. Worked



ssh-add "C:/Users/oserdyuk/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.pub"  -- Error loading key. Invalid format
