Good day to you!
A couple of days ago, I got a long-awaited position as a C# intern programmer remotely. The team uses the Mercurial repository via SSH keys.
I know, there are a lot of tutorials on the topic, but .. Installed, so I TortoiseHg, uploaded putty, puttygen and puttylink to the folder with it according to the instructions. Sent public-ssh to the admin. Then I try to clone the central repository hg clon ssh://... cmd hangs on this action. The lead suggested a quote: "First check that ssh is working and the key is passing. To do this, try to log in to the machine as hg.
ssh [email protected]
Login will not work, but what is important is what answer you get from the server." from which I practically did not understand anything .
Help me not to lose my position because of the absurdity.
