ssh: Add a specific key to the ssh-agent.
$ ssh-add ${path-to-private_key}
try on your machine
The command "ssh-add" is used to add private keys to the SSH agent, which is a program that runs in the background and manages SSH keys. The SSH agent holds the private keys securely and uses them to authenticate with remote servers when making SSH connections.
"${path-to-private_key}" is a placeholder that represents the actual path to the private key file that you want to add to the SSH agent. You need to replace it with the specific path to your private key file.
By running this command, you are instructing the SSH agent to add the specified private key to its collection of keys. This allows you to authenticate with remote servers using that key without having to provide the passphrase each time you make an SSH connection.
