azure SSH permision denied (public key) - Git

Question

Good afternoon, I have a problem when pushing to a remote repository on the azure vm. I configured the ssh key between the vm and my computer, I can only connect via ssh (passing the server user) with the command: ssh -i <private key path> user@vmip. Everything ok so far, the problem is when I give git push, I get the error of permission denied (public key). I've already run the commands eval $(ssh-agent), ssh-add ~/.ssh/my key and it still doesn't send the push. I need help as I use the student plan to test my study projects, if anyone can help me I would be very grateful. Thanks.

The push is done from my machine to vm directly, with googlecloud I never had any problems.

Hi,

There is a stackoverflow answer that explain what you need to do to get git working with ssh:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4565700/how-to-specify-the-private-ssh-key-to-use-when-executing-shell-command-on-git

I would prefer the first answer with updating .ssh/config file.
But there is a possibility to have this without .ssh/config but you need to issue a much longer cmd line. (See the second response)

Hole this helps!
