Trying it from the command prompt, I get these slightly more informative messages: Permission denied (publickey). I have everything set up, the repository cloned on my computer, and I can commit, but if I try to do something like fetching it fails with the following message (from Visual Studio's "Output" window): Error encountered while fetching: Git failed with a fatal error.įatal: Could not read from remote repository. I'm trying to connect to a Git repository (on Bitbucket) with SSH from Visual Studio 2017 (which, as far as I know, supports SSH for Git).
