Description Maciej Bendkowski CLA 2012-08-14 06:01:58 EDT
Working with my Orion fork on GitHub using HTTPS access I'm unable to authenticate providing my SSH private key. However I'm able to connect GitHub through the console using SSH via the HTTPS port (see https://help.github.com/articles/using-ssh-over-the-https-port). The private key authentication method should be enabled or, if it's not possible, Orion should not mislead the user by suggesting this authentication method is available via HTTP access.
