Bug Description
On the Git setup page of the upstream training guide I get an error when trying to generate my ssh key:
sipos@sipos-
Too many arguments
I think a '-c' is missing before the email address. So correctly:
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -c "<email address hidden>"

Gergely

-C instead of -c seems to be correct, according to /help.github. com/articles/ generating- a-new-ssh- key-and- adding- it-to-the- ssh-agent/
1) https:/
2) ssh-kengen usage:
usage: ssh-keygen [-q] [-b bits] [-t dsa | ecdsa | ed25519 | rsa | rsa1]
[-N new_passphrase] [-C comment] [-f output_keyfile]
ssh-keygen -p [-P old_passphrase] [-N new_passphrase] [-f keyfile]
ssh-keygen -i [-m key_format] [-f input_keyfile]
ssh-keygen -e [-m key_format] [-f input_keyfile]
ssh-keygen -y [-f input_keyfile]
ssh-keygen -c [-P passphrase] [-C comment] [-f keyfile]
