How to get your code to your Space
This section assumes you've completed Getting Started and Spaces and that you have a Space running.
To sync code between your local machine and your Space, PairSpaces uses SSH Agent Forwarding. When you run git clone ... from your Space, SSH running in your Space forwards the authentication request from your Space to your local machine. Your local SSH agent will use the correct private key to authenticate the request and you will be able to sync code from your remote repository without storing any keys in your Space.
Read more about Agent Forwarding from OpenSSH.
The SSH agent running on your local machine needs to know which key to use to authenticate requests forwarded from your Space. Use the ssh-add command to add the key that authenticates with your private repository, e.g., GitHub.
> ssh-add /path/to/your/key
> ssh-add /path/to/your/key
> ssh-add /path/to/your/key
You can confirm your key is available to your SSH agent on your local machine using ssh-add -L, whose output will describe the key you just added.
Use pair space SPACE_ID to access your Space using your favorite Terminal app. (Use pair spaces to list your spaces and their SPACE_IDs.)
From your Space, go to the /space directory, which is dedicated volume storage for your work, and clone a repository.
> git clone git@github.com:stark/ironman.git
