I have successfully pushed one app code onto github.
I had set up the ssh key and added it to github.

But then I started working on another app and tried to push it onto github using:

git remote add github git@github.com:user_name/demo_app.git
git push -u github master

Then I got the following error:

Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

I have also tried changing the name of the remote Git repository but that didn’t work too.

I tried $ssh -v git@github.com to get more information and this is what i got.

-bash: cd: ../.ssh: No such file or directory

While i was setting the ssh key I was asked for a passphrase and I didnt leave it blank.

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    There are a few reasons why you can get this issue:

    • Typo: Having a typo anywhere while adding remote can cause the problem.
    • Wrong SSH key: This can happen if your ssh key changed and you are accessing the repo again.
    • Access Revoke: If your access to the project is revoked, you can get this error.
    • Incorrect SSH key – Make sure that \n is not copy-pasted from the ssh key.
