問題の解決
Warning: If you install OpenSSH, your computer will not be able to retrieve passphrases that are stored in the Apple keychain. You will need to enter your passphrase or interact with your hardware security key every time you authenticate with SSH to GitHub or another web service.
If you remove OpenSSH, the passphrases that are stored in your keychain will once again be retrievable. You can remove OpenSSH by entering the command brew uninstall openssh in Terminal.
- ターミナルを開きます。
- Enter the command
brew install openssh. - Quit and relaunch Terminal.
- Try the procedure for generating a new SSH key again. 詳しい情報については、「新しい SSH キーを生成して ssh-agent に追加する」を参照してください。
To solve this issue on Linux, use the package manager for your Linux distribution to install a new version of OpenSSH, or compile a new version from source. If you install a different version of OpenSSH, the ability of other applications to authenticate via SSH may be affected. For more information, review the documentation for your distribution.
