<p>In the world of software development, Git is the go-to version control system for managing source code. Securely connecting to your Git repositories is essential. One of the most secure methods to do this is by using SSH (Secure Shell) keys. In this guide, we will walk through the steps to set up Git with SSH on a Mac.</p>
<h1>1. Installing Git</h1>
<p>The first step is to ensure Git is installed on your Mac. If it’s not already installed, you can use Homebrew, a package manager for macOS, to install it. Open your Terminal and run the following commands.</p>
<pre>
brew update
brew install git</pre>
<h1>2. Generating an SSH Key</h1>
<p>Before you can use SSH with Git, you need an SSH key. If you don’t have one, you can generate it with the following command, replacing your email address.</p>
<pre>
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "
[email protected]"</pre>
<p>This command will prompt you to save the key to a specific location. You can press Enter to accept the default location.</p>
