lazygit: Permission denied (public key) for hosted gitlab
Topic
I can’t use SSH to contact a git(lab) repository, but are forced to a https url as remote.
In Lazygit i’m unable to fetch or push data, because of authentication problem.
Permission denied (public key)
Your thoughts I would expect that at least I’m prompted to enter my passphare for my private key. That isn’t happening, so I assume that this is the reason why it fails. How does lazygit work with HTTPS git repostories? Can someone please help me?
Nice to have feaure: It would also be interesting in lazygit if it caches the password or the decrypted private key as long the process runs.

I’m also facing the same issue. But it only happens on Windows, not macOS or Linux.
I found a solution for Windows 10!
Need to:
ssh-agent(Set-Service ssh-agent -StartupType Automatic; Start-Service ssh-agent)git config --global core.sshcommand "C:/Windows/System32/OpenSSH/ssh.exe)ssh-add path/to/key)https://poshsecurity.com/blog/using-the-openssh-client-included-in-windows-10-1809-as-your-gits-ssh-client
Please let me know if I can support you and provide further details.
