git remotes with ssh aliases
Did you know that ~/.ssh/config aliases work for git remotes? ~/.ssh/config You can now use gh:username/repo as the remote in place of git@github.com:username/repo, which is much shorter and easier to type many times! git clone gh:benharri/learngit There are many other use cases for the ssh_config file. For example, here is my config for the tilde machine for easy ssh connections. Then use ssh tilde to start a new ssh session. This also works with scp: try something like this scp file.txt tilde:workspace/. in place of scp file.txt ben@tilde.team:workspace/. The ssh_config file is super useful. Check man ssh_config for a full […]
