Code of Conduct

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/telling-git-about-your-signing-key?platform=linux#telling-git-about-your-ssh-key

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

The section titled "Copy the SSH public key to your clipboard" has zero relevance and is very confusing.

It instructs you to copy the content of the public key, but you actually need the path of the public key.
