Git push doesn't workafter OS X Mavericks upgrade

Heather Baldwin

I just reformatted my Mac and upgraded to Mavericks. Git no longer seems to be connected to the remote repository.

Git push

results in the error message

Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

I do not know how to check the access rights and re-establish the connection to the remote repositories. Can anyone help me out?

edited to clarify: after the fresh os install I migrated my documents over, I didn't do a time machine restore.

I'm sorry, I should have been more clear about the procedure.

I saw that you have created a new Public Key with the command:

ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "myname@example.com"

The next step now, is to add this public key that you created to your Bitbucket account. The following page will guide you through the procedure:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BITBUCKET/Set+up+SSH+for+Git#SetupSSHforGit-#installpublickeyStep6.InstallthepublickeyonyourBitbucketaccount

Just a heads up, on the 9th part of the step 6, in which you need run the command: "ssh -T git@bitbucket.org" remember that you need to replace "git" for your user. For instance:

ssh -T heather@bitbucket.org

Hi There,

This error may happen because you don't have a correct public key inside your home directory.

In order to check if this is the case, could you please see if you have the following file: ~/.ssh/id_rsa

This file is responsable for the Public Key on your connection and if you don't have that I suggest that you copy the old one that you had before the format.

There is a method for using the verbose of SSH, which might help us to get a more detailed information about the error:

$ ssh -vT git@example.com

Could you try to use this command and post the result?

Regards,

Heather Baldwin

Hi Henrique,

I have that file. After reading something about it maybe having to do with the key, I did the following;

ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "myname@example.com"
pbcopy &lt; ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

However it still doesn't work. When I tried that command you advised, I got:

computername:~ homedir$ ssh -vT
OpenSSH_6.2p2, OSSLShim 0.9.8r 8 Dec 2011
usage: ssh [-1246AaCfgKkMNnqsTtVvXxYy] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec]

           [-I pkcs11] [-i identity_file]
           [-L [bind_address:]port:host:hostport]
           [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-O ctl_cmd] [-o option] [-p port]
           [-R [bind_address:]port:host:hostport] [-S ctl_path]
           [-W host:port] [-w local_tun[:remote_tun]]
           [user@]hostname [command]

Sorry, I'm still not very good with git...

Cheers,

Heather: Since you generated a new ssh key, you'll need to remove your old key from the Bitbucket and add the new one that you just created. These instructions should help.

Heather Baldwin

Thanks for your response, Jeff. I'm trying to follow the instructions, but I'm struggling with Step 4. When I said I'm not good with git, I meant it. How can I create a new text file and edit it from bash?

Jeff Thomas

I linked to the Windows instructions, sorry!

Thanks Jeff, I followed those instructions and it worked.
