Siva,

Is your public key loaded?

ssh-add -l

If you're on Windows is Pageant.exe loaded with the correct key?

Hi Jesse,

In the current environment that I work, I use bitbucket and sourcetree. I usually create a feature branch in bitbucket and then checkout using source tree.

Few days back , I had to change my login password. From that day I was unable to checkout into sourcetree. I tried to delete my local branches, and some how now I am encountered with lot of issues.

Siva,

Try and add your SSH key and then try again:

ssh-add -K ~/.ssh/span12-Bitbucket

[span12]

Thanks a ton Jesse.

That is magic. Now I am able to checkout. :):)

Regards,
Siva

No problem! An easier way to do this would be to add an entry to your config file, which would make it so you wouldn't have to add your key upon startup:

1. Create a file named "config" under your ~/.ssh/ directory

2. Add this entry:

Host *
  UseKeychain yes
  AddKeysToAgent yes
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/span12-Bitbucket

Hi Jesse,

I see "config" already in there. Here are the contents :

# --- SourceTree Generated ---
Host span12-Bitbucket
HostName bitbucket.org
User span12
PreferredAuthentications publickey
IdentityFile /Users/span12/.ssh/span12-Bitbucket
UseKeychain yes
AddKeysToAgent yes
# ----------------------------

But I don't see " Host * " should I need to add this ?

Regards,

Siva

"Host *" would set the key to be used with any hosts you connect to. If you're only using the key for Bitbucket Cloud, then your entry is fine.

Here's another example of setting up multiple hosts with the same key file: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/16571/multiple-host-in-ssh-config
