I am trying to configure GitKraken with a particular repo I have on Github. As far as I can tell, once I give it my local project folder with the repo, it can see the remote. However, trying to push or pull gives me an error Push/Fetch failed. could not connect to origin.
It seems like it is an issue with authentication and SSH. I've tried to generate public/private keys in GitKrakens preferences auth page and add them to Github under the Github pane, but I get the same errors.
At this point I simply can't get things to work. I'm unfamiliar with the specifics of SSH. What is the issue here and how can I configure GitKraken to push/fetch with my upstream?

GitKraken allows users with the GitHub.com or GitHub Enterprise integrations to fork repositories from GitHub. To get started with forking a GitHub repository, you will first open that GitHub repo in GitKraken.
The git push command is used to upload local repository content to a remote repository. Pushing is how you transfer commits from your local repository to a remote repo. It's the counterpart to git fetch , but whereas fetching imports commits to local branches, pushing exports commits to remote branches.
I also had this issue. Because I was trying to pull an organizations repo which was also private I needed to be granted access by the organization to use GitKraken (since it is seen as a third-party). If you go to your Github settings and under Applications -> Authorized OAuth App -> GitKraken thats where you can apply for permissions to the specific organizations you are assigned to on Github.
Hope this helps!
