Sign in with GitHub

GitKraken lets you log in with your GitHub account. Yay, one less password to remember 🎉

When logging into GitKraken, click and log in with your credentials. This will automatically connect your account for the GitHub integration.

GitHub Authentication

GitKraken uses your local SSH Config from SSH Defaults to fetch and push unless you set up a Azure DevOps-specific SSH key, or enable your local SSH Agent. Once your Azure DevOps account has been connected to GitKraken, you may easily generate an SSH key and add it to your Azure DevOps account from Preferences Integrations. Before you can clone a repo over SSH, you must first set up your SSH keys in GitKraken. Navigate to Preferences SSH. Here you may choose an SSH key pair by browsing your file system, or let GitKraken generate a key for you (recommended). Make sure that you copy your public SSH key and paste it into your remote hosting service! Gitkraken with SSH to Gitlab. Ask Question Asked 4 years, 6 months ago. Active 1 year, 11 months ago. Viewed 12k times 6. I've been having a hard time getting the auth to work with ssh keys (don't want to be prompted for user and pass every time).

First, you may search through your existing repositories when cloning:

Next, GitKraken presents a list of forks of the current repository when adding remotes:

Of course, you still have the option of manually entering repo URLs.

Why can't I see my remotes or repositories in the drop down menu?

If no remotes or repositories are appearing in Add Remote or Clone, you may need an organization to first allow access.

GitKraken cannot see those repos when cloning or adding a fork unless the org specifically gives permission to GitKraken as an application.

  • First check to see if access is allowed to GitKraken from your profile's GitHub Applications
  • If access has been allowed, then the organization will need to allow Organization Approval
  • If you are attempting to use GitKraken with a repository owned by a different individual, consider forking their repository to use GitKraken for your changes. Otherwise this other individual will need to first install GitKraken and connect it to GitHub (as shown in this page above) to authorize GitKraken.
