Menu
I have a Virtualbox VM with Ubuntu server running with networking set to bridged.
I've installed git, initialized a repo, added my key to my github account, and ran ssh -T [email protected] all with no errors.
My problem comes when I try to actually pull a repo. No matter what repo I attempt to pull, I get the error Permission denied (publickey). fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
So, any tips on getting this working?
Thanks.

Create a shared folder. From Virtual menu go to Devices->Shared Folders then add a new folder in the list, this folder should be the one in windows which you want to share with Ubuntu(Guest OS). Make this created folder auto-mount. Example -> Make a folder on Desktop with name Ubuntushare and add this folder.
Your OS can get corrupted, which as a result can make your Ubuntu crawl. So, go to ubuntu.com/download and download the Ubuntu ISO. Then install it on your VirtualBox, allocate it a good amount of resources, and hopefully, it will do the job for you.
I've found a workaround 'fix':
The problem seems to be trying to pull in 'Bridged' mode in Virtualbox. If I switch networking to NAT I can successfully pull, then I switch back to Bridged to work locally, then back to NAT when it's time to push.
It's not the most convenient fix, but it works for now. If anyone has a suggestion to make this better, I'm all ears.

What worked for me was to set my github user and password to the command line that asks to clone the repository. Since in your vm you are not logged in github..
What I did was: git clone https://username:[email protected]/repositoriUrl.git
(Being username your github user account name, password your github pass and repositoryUrl.git the url for your repository).
I hope this helps!
