when i push changes (in this case to my openshift repo) i have to supply the ssh private key of that repo.  this makes sense but it's a bit awkward and needs to be repeated often (well, maybe that's a bit artificial since I'm only playing).

is there a way to streamline this?

Hi Ian, Can you clarify the steps you're taking?  Are you using JazzHub to edit code?  Is your openshift repo a github repo?

Hello Lauren, Using jazzhub to edit code.  Pushing that code to my openshift repo, from where i can deploy to openshift cloud and run the application. When I push code to my openshift git repository, jazzhub prompts me for my ssh private key.  My question is whether I'm using jazzhub efficiently -- repeatedly supplying my key is a bit clumsy.

Thanks for the info Ian.  I don't know of a way to bypass inputting your ssh private key every time.  I'll submit an enhancement request.

Hi Lauren - I wasn't expecting an enhancement - only wanted to check that I wasn't missing something. Thanks.

Hi Ian,

1) Go to "Tools >> Settings >> Git Settings"
2) Under "Git Credentials Storage" tick the "enable storage" checkbox and  press "Update"

With that option set, the next time you perform a Git operation that requires authentication there will be a "Don't prompt me again" checkbox to save your credentials.
