Generate SSH Keys
-----------------
You must generate SSH keys for github to clone the Ceph
repository. If you do not have SSH keys for ``github``, execute::

assumes you used the default file path)::
cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub
Copy the public key.

click on "Account Settings" (i.e., the 'tools' icon); then,
click "SSH Keys" on the left side navbar.
Click "Add SSH key" in the "SSH Keys" list, enter a name for
the key, paste the key you generated, and press the "Add key"
button.
