[Bioc-devel] git svn permissions

[Thomas Lawson]

Hi all,

I have been trying to link my existing github repository to my bioconductor
repository but I am having a bit of trouble...

I have been following: https://master.bioconductor
.org/developers/how-to/git/sync-existing-repositories/

I have the an existing github repository (github.com/viant-metabolomics/
msPurity) that I would like to use maintain my bioconductor repository
(https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/msPurity.html)

I have created a SSH key with github and used the git /svn form
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdlTbNjsQJDp0BA480vo4tNufs0ziNyNmexegNZgNieIovbAA/
viewform

   - Using my old svn account username (t.lawson) for the "enter your SVN
   user id" section


   - Using a my github username (tomnl) for the "SSH public key or your
   GitHub id" section

I can then run the following command OK "git remote add upstream git at git.
bioconductor.org:packages/msPurity.git"

And when I run "git remote -v" I get:

# origin    https://github.com/Viant-Metabolomics/msPurity (fetch)
# origin    https://github.com/Viant-Metabolomics/msPurity (push)
# upstream    git at git.bioconductor.org:packages/msPurity.git (fetch)
# upstream    git at git.bioconductor.org:packages/msPurity.git (push)

But when I run "git fetch --all" I get a prompt for a password for thomas.
nigel.lawson at gmail.com

I tried the password that I set for the SSH key but I couldn't get access.



In case I made a mistake somewhere, I have just repeated the process. I
have just created a new SSH key following https://help.github
.com/articles/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent/

The resubmitted the new SSH public key with Github and resubmitted the git/
svn form (03/10/2017  approx 14:00).

I now get another error when I run 'git fetch upstram':

# Permission denied (publickey).
# fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

# Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository
exists.


Apologies if I have missed something straightforward

Kind regards,

Tom
