Fixed in Sourcetree 4.2.1

Ok, it looks like some ssh key config issue. Could you please try to create this file ~/.ssh/config and put the following content inside it:

Host *
  UseKeychain yes
  AddKeysToAgent yes
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/PATH_TO_IDENTITY

In case config file is already exists, then backup it at first. I hope it should help to resolve your issue. 

Also, as alternative, you could add this: ssh-add --apple-use-keychain ~/.ssh/xxx into ~/.zprofile file. It's kind of overkill, because previous suggestion with config file should help you.

CONSOLE> % git clone git@github.com:xxx/xxx.git

Cloning into 'xxx'...

no such identity: /Users/xxx/.ssh/xxx: No such file or directory

git@github.com: Permission denied (publickey).

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights

and the repository exists.

CONSOLE> ssh-add --apple-use-keychain ~/.ssh/xxx

Identity added: /Users/xxx/.ssh/xxx (Generated by Sourcetree on macOS for xxx)

CONSOLE> % git clone git@github.com:xxx/xxx.git

everything works

Hi, 82dbdda59018

Your output from Sourcetree looks pretty strange. Could you please check if this setup (your ssh key) is working from the Terminal? I mean does it work when you are trying to clone the repo from the terminal using "git clone" command?

Raman

thanks,

I'm unable to open that ticket though, it seems to be private.

After my m1 mac turned off / back on, SSH problem strikes again:

git -c color.branch=false -c color.diff=false -c color.status=false -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false -c credential.helper=sourcetree fetch origin 

no such identity: /Users/me/.ssh/Me-GitHub: No such file or directory

git@github.com: Permission denied (publickey).

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights

and the repository exists.

Thanks for your response. According to your description it loos like your issue is related to this one https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/SRCTREE-7957

We are also created internal issue for analysing and fixing it. We will try to provide a fix in future releases.

Hi Raman,

these problems happen all the time for me, I was able to fix them so I'm a bit afraid to break everything again by changing 

But from my experience I'm sure I'll have them next time I change something (in case they will not be fixed), so I'll try to comment here. When I'll have more time, I'll revoke my app permission and will make screenshots.

From time to time (last time happened few hours ago) GitHub access breaks on M1 Mac as SSH key, while visible in Sourcetree UI, isn't actually working.

As a result I was unable to Fetch my repository with a message something like "<SSH path> no such file or directory", though SSH key was created by Sourcetree and file and folder still exist.

Maybe, permission issues, though I gave permissions to access my keychain with Sourcetree when alert message box asked for permission. I've fixed it with terminal ssh-add --apple-use-keychain ~/.ssh/MYACC-GitHub

And I have to re-run that command in terminal each few weeks.

Concerning OAuth permissions, when I connect new OAuth Github Account via Sourcetree button

it looks something like this:

(not Sourcetree screenshot, but it was similar)

I'd fixed that with workaround: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Sourcetree-questions/Sourcetree-for-Mac-GitHub-account-permissions/qaq-p/961120

And my repository became able to be Cloned/Fetched/Pulled.

Edit: Images do not work
