Session Summary — 2026-06-13-01-gitea-push-setup

Date: 2026-06-13 Model: Sonnet-4.6 (Claude Code) Status: Complete

What We Did

  • Initialized git repo for the Artfight HTML project
  • Added Gitea remote with SSH URL on port 2222
  • Diagnosed and resolved SSH authentication failure:
    • SSH config already had correct entry (git.lavender-daydream.com, port 2222, id_ed25519_mew)
    • SSH agent had no identities loaded (ssh-add -l returned empty)
    • Fixed by running ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_mew
  • Renamed branch from master to main
  • Pushed initial commit to Gitea

Key Commands

git init
git remote add git-lav ssh://git@git.lavender-daydream.com:2222/berlyn/Artfight-HTML.git
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"
git branch -m master main
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_mew
git push -u git-lav main

Root Cause

SSH agent was empty — key was not loaded despite being correctly configured in ~/.ssh/config. The agent loses loaded keys on reboot/session restart. Fix: ssh-add the key.

Lessons Learned

  • SSH config being correct is not enough — the key also needs to be loaded into the agent (ssh-add)
  • no identity pubkey loaded in verbose SSH output (-v) indicates the agent isn't holding the key
  • For non-standard SSH ports, use the ssh:// URL format: ssh://git@host:PORT/user/repo.git
