Github (SSH) via public WIFI, port 22 blocked

Question

Try this:

$ vim ~/.ssh/config

Add

Host github.com
  Hostname ssh.github.com
  Port 443

The same works for Bitbucket:

Host bitbucket.org
  Hostname  altssh.bitbucket.org
  Port  443

In addition to configuring it with the ~/.ssh/config file, you can also simply include the port number in the remote URL you use. You just have to

1. use a proper URL like ssh://user@host:port/path instead of the user@host:path shorthand; and

2. prepend the ssh. subdomain to github.com.

For instance, instead of

[email protected]:cdbennett/python-gitlab.git

use

ssh://[email protected]:443/cdbennett/python-gitlab.git

For gitlab, following can be added:

Host gitlab.com
  Hostname altssh.gitlab.com
  User git
  Port 443

No need to modify the ~/.ssh/config. You can add another remote repository via git remote add ...

// github
git remote add ssh://[email protected]:443/repo/name.git

// gitlab
git remote add ssh://[email protected]:443/repo/name.git
