Question about SSH-key credentials vs. GCM

[Mia Paulin]

Hi all!  I hope everyone is enjoying their workday so far!  Keep the coffee coming along with the expresso and it will be alright. Rambling aside,  I actually have a question having to do with the portal- or an integration into the portal.  Riddle me this:  Having to reinstall Git because it didn't have the OpenSSH bundle on it-or I wasn't sure so I am in the process of reinstalling it so I can create secure pipelines for the Jira Cloud and DevOps to and from Bitbucket and my home laptop.  It's giving me the option to use GCM, which uses https and I need SSH for secure git integration over a secure network, which is offered by OpenSSH.  Should I select the GCM option anyway? Will it still let me configure my private and public keys?  Or will it do it for me by default?  Need some help.
