ssh keygen command that is compatible with caprover

[vinaydate]

The reference issue is this.

I have personally verified the generated key with suggested command

Thanks, Vinay! But I think the problem with the previous command in the doc was the "format", not the key type which I've already fixed here: https://github.com/caprover/caprover-website/commit/022abbe17e544e9b507760e1e7bbf372f7f1f279

Would you please be able to test the current command in the doc and confirm whether it works or not for you?

ssh-keygen -m PEM -t ed25519 -C "yourname@example.com" -f ./deploykey -q -N ""

Hi

Appreciate your quick review.

I had tried

ssh-keygen -m PEM -t ed25519 -C @.***" -f ./deploykey -q -N ""

this command and it did not work in my case. But today, when I thought to give it a try. (Due consideration being, you must have tried and tested this). And it worked. Don't what was missing earlier. Anyways, thanks to your whole team for Caprover.

So, I will close the pull request
