The github.com documentation pages I read on this topic yesterday said the MFA requirement was for web sign-on and https GIT repo URLs. It explicitly said that SSH-based git repo access would not be affected. Has anyone seen contradictory statements published by github?

Edit to add: I mean SSH git access using a keypair registered with your account. (I don't know if there is some legacy option to use SSH with passwords, which I imagine would be discontinued if not already.)

yubikey 5 nano, get two. i use it w/ ssh. took a little googling to integrate the gpg authentications key w/ ssh. instead of using ssh-agent, you'd use gpg-agent to manage the keys.

there are other integrations, for example, i can also unlock my mac w/ the yubikey.

> Okay so which one do I buy and how do I use it with ssh. The documentation is not specific.

Oh crap, I was thinking this doesn't affect me because I already have two factors authentication but yes if I need to fish out my phone every time I need to git something (I use sash, not tokens) that requires authentication, I will definitely minimize what I do on GitHub.
