Can't push new repos to github using ssh with key or https with password

[Iridium-Lo]

a-shell is the best terminal out there on phones. I can't be bothered sitting on my laptop at times.

Can you tell me how I can push a new repo to git?

I've done my usual workflow of:

λ git init .
Initialized empty Git repository in /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/2F2067
1C-AAB3-4DA3-A2BD-209917AE247A/Documents/git/
λ git remote add origin git@cat:/Iridium-lo/a
Shell 
λ git add .
λ git commit -m 'x'
HEAD not found. Creating the first commit.
Error creating signature.
This seems to be a configuration error, proba
bly the result of missing or invalid author i
nformation.
Try running 
    lg2 config user.name 'Your Name'
    lg2 config user.email youremail@example.c
om
to provide authorship information for new com
mits in this repository.
This information is used to label new commits
 and will travel with them (e.g. it's shared 
with servers when you `lg2 push`).
Bad news:
 config value 'user.name' was not found
λ git config user.name Iridium-lo
λ git config user.kayocerasso@gmail.com  
λ git push -u origin master
Error pushing [-1] - failed to resolve address for cat: nodename nor servname provided, or not known

git config

λ cat .git/config 
[core]
        bare = false
        repositoryformatversion = 0
        filemode = true
        precomposeunicode = true
        logallrefupdates = true
[remote "origin"]
        url = git@cat:/Iridium-lo/aShell
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/or
igin/*
[user]
        name = Iridium-lo

ssh config

λ cat .ssh/config 
host cat
  user git
  hostname github.com
  identityFile ~/Documents/.ssh/lynx

I have my lynx key on github.

If I try to push using HTTPS it doesn't accept my password. If you try it, your bound to run in to the same errors.

I'm not in a position to run tests right now, but from reading the error message, it seems that lg2 is only reading .git/config but not .ssh/config (which, IIRC, is indeed a limitation of lg2 compared to git). You will have to transfer the information into the .git/config file:

[core]
        bare = false
        repositoryformatversion = 0
        filemode = true
        precomposeunicode = true
        logallrefupdates = true
[remote "origin"]
        url = git@github.com:/Iridium-lo/aShell
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/or
igin/*
[user]
        name = Iridium-lo
        identityFile ~/Documents/.ssh/lynx

That should do it (again, I cannot run tests, so you may have to fix a few issues to make it work, but you get the idea).
