Hi @JustinsKittens!

Thanks for reporting this issue. This is an issue with your ssh agent and github. If you want to use git clone git@github.com syntax, you should add your public key to your github account. https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/troubleshooting-ssh/error-permission-denied-publickey#verify-the-public-key-is-attached-to-your-account

If you don't have configured ssh on your github account, can you try to clone overs https with

git clone https://github.com/cozy-labs/cozy-desktop.git

Hi @lacthon. The issue lies in @JustinsKittens's Github config so I don't see any way you could help with that. I'm closing the issue.

@JustinsKittens feel free to open a new issue if you believe there is something else.
