How to clone a private git repository into a kubernetes pod using ssh keys in secrets?

I am trying to clone a private git repository(gitLab) into a kubernetes pod, using SSH keys for authentication. I have stored my keys in a secret. Here is the yaml file for the job that does the desired task.

Heres the same question, but doesnt give the exact solution :

Clone a secure git repo in Kubernetes pod

Logs of the init container after execution:

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

The yaml file which works perfectly for public repo:

apiVersion: batch/v1
kind: Job

    app: nest-kaniko-example
spec:
  template:

          args: ["--dockerfile=/workspace/Dockerfile",
                "--context=/workspace/",
                "--destination=aws.dest.cred"]

          name: download
          image: alpine:3.7
          command: ["/bin/sh","-c"]
          args: ['apk add --no-cache git && git clone https://github.com/username/repo.git /tmp/']
          volumeMounts:
            -
              mountPath: /tmp

  initContainers:
    -
      name: git-sync
      image: gcr.io/google_containers/git-sync-amd64:v2.0.4
      volumeMounts:
        -
          mountPath: /workspace
          name: source
        -
          name: git-secret
          mountPath: "/etc/git-secret"
      env:
        - name: GIT_SYNC_REPO
          value: "[email protected]:username/repo.git"
        - name: GIT_SYNC_SSH
          value: "true"
        - name: GIT_SYNC_ROOT
          value: /workspace
        - name: GIT_SYNC_DEST
          value: "tmp"
        - name: GIT_SYNC_ONE_TIME
          value: "true"

NOTE: set GIT_SYNC_ROOT env to /workspace

It'll clone in /workspace/tmp directory in your emptyDir source volume.
