Gitolite and SSH

gitolite and ssh

I have installed gitolite (v3) on server (host.name.com).

SSH Information

I have a private key, ~/.ssh/ida_rsa_gitolite, in lab.  I have already added my public key to gitolite.  I also have an ssh configuration file in ~/.ssh/config file in lab.

mvelez@lab:~/.ssh$ cat config

host gitolite

user git

hostname host.name.com

identityfile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_gitolite

I can use the 'gitolite' alias.

mvelez@lab:~$ ssh -T gitolite
hello mvelez, this is git@server running gitolite3 v3.03-29-g3c0f177 on git 1.7.9.5


 R W gitolite-admin
 R W testing

And I can use git@host.name.com directly.

mvelez@lab:~$ ssh -T git@host.name.com
hello mvelez, this is git@server running gitolite3 v3.03-29-g3c0f177 on git 1.7.9.5


 R W gitolite-admin
 R W testing

What I really care about is being able to do this.

mvelez@eden:~$ git clone git@host.name.com:gitolite-admin

Questions:  

1) Do I have to run 'ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa_gitolite'?
