Unable to clone repo
I've been trying to setup pass on a newer iphone on and off for over a year now and I can never get both git repo cloning and GPG key importing to both work.
The latest attempt has resulted in a couple failure modes: see attached images for details.
I'm at a loss here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
@mssun Sorry for '@'ing you directly, I'm not familiar enough with this project to ping someone else. Is there anything I can do to help you debug this issue?
Your first sentence sounds like either the repository can be cloned or the PGP keys can be set up. Is it really true that one prevents the other? Normally, there is no relation between them.
Which key type do you use for your SSH key?
Have you tried to authenticate via password? Does it work? It is important that your Git server allows SSH authentication.
Does your server use standard ports for SSH and HTTPS?
If you use HTTPS the <username>@ part in the URL must be removed.
We have a simple wiki about how to clone the repository here. As mentioned by @SimpleDanny, you may also find discussions in #218 helpful.
If you want to rule out the possibility that your SSH key is the root cause of the issue, I would suggest cloning something from Github first, say a fork of the demo password repository.
@lukelane124 Can you provide more information? I can help you out in the weekend. Thanks.
Same problem. It's first asking for a password for the non-password-protected ssh key and when I provided none aborts with the above message.
I got the same problem when trying to clone the repository. This happened after a merge conflict was detected and a sync was not possible. The sync succeeded after the setting the repository visibility on the server to public. All further syncs succeeded although I set the repository visibility on the server to private again.
