The command you provided is using the "gh" command-line tool to add an SSH key. Here is a breakdown of the different components:
- "gh": It is a command-line tool called GitHub CLI (gh) that provides an easy way to interact with GitHub from the command line.
- "ssh-key add": This is a subcommand of "gh" to add an SSH key to your GitHub account.
- "--title ${title}": This is an optional flag that sets the title for the SSH key you are adding. The ${title} is a placeholder that represents the actual title you want to give to the key.
- "${path-to-key-pub}": This is the path to the public key file you want to add. You should replace ${path-to-key-pub} with the actual path on your system.
To use this command, you need to have the "gh" tool installed and authenticate with your GitHub account. Make sure to substitute "${title}" with the desired title for the key and "${path-to-key-pub}" with the actual path to the public key file you want to add.
