SSH​

If choosing to mirror repositories from GitLab to GitHub via SSH with public key authentication, you need to:

  1. Input correct repository URL, for example, you should change from the first line(which you copy from GitHub) to the form of the second line.
    - git@github.com:masakichi/dotfiles.git
    + ssh://git@github.com:22/masakichi/dotfiles.git
  2. Copy GitLab's SSH public key to GitHub.
SSH public key

Each repository has its own SSH public key generated by GitLab, you need to add public key to GitHub multiple times if you want to mirror multiple repositories.
