What happens when Xcode cannot recognize Gitee identity?

During the development process, we often use a variety of tools and platforms, among which Git is a very commonly used version control tool. In recent years, domestic code hosting platforms have also attracted more and more attention from developers, such as Gitee.

However, sometimes, we may encounter some problems, such as Gitee identity not being recognized in Xcode. The solution to this problem is not complicated, and this article will explain it to you in detail.

Problem Description

When using Xcode for code management, we often use Source Control. This function is the basis for code version control with Xcode's integrated Git. But sometimes, we may encounter a situation where we cannot push to the code base on Gitee, and the following prompt appears:

The server requires authentication for 'git@xxxx'
Please supply the password for 'git@xxxx'

Solution

The reason why this situation occurs is because of Xcode Gitee's authentication method cannot be recognized and we need to set it manually.

Step 1: Generate SSH Key

First, we need to generate an SSH Key for Xcode for authentication. Open Terminal and enter the following command:

λ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "your_email@example.com"

where your_email@example.com is your email address. This command will be used in the default SSH path (~/.ssh/ ) to generate a pair of public key and private key.

Step 2: Add the public key to Gitee

Next, we need to add the public key to Gitee for authentication. Open the Gitee website, enter user settings, click SSH public key, and add a new public key.

Copy the public key content generated in Terminal.

Step 3: Modify the local Git configuration

Finally, we need to add Gitee’s account information to the local Git configuration. Enter the following command in Terminal:

λ git config --global user.name "Your Name"
λ git config --global user.email "youremail@domain.com"

Among them, Your Name and youremail@domain.com need to be replaced with your account information on Gitee.

So far, the problem has been solved. Now when you push again, Xcode will authenticate correctly.

Conclusion

Through this article, we learned how to solve the problem of unrecognizable Gitee identity in Xcode. While the solution to this problem is not complicated, it can be difficult to think of the right solution without understanding the principles behind it. Hope this article can help you.
