[Bioc-devel] updating pathwayPCA: "permission denied (publickey)"

Thank you Prof. MacDonald.
The solution ended up being slightly different than we had anticipated, but I'm including it below should any other users have similar difficulties.

TL;DR: RStudio Terminal can't find my SSH key (despite being listed in the RStudio Global Options), but Git Bash can. Solution: push upstream via Git Bash.

Long version: I use Git via the Terminal in RStudio rather than through more traditional means. As of last year, the home directory (~/) on Windows for an RStudio Terminal is different than the home directory for the rest of the computer. This issue is documented here (https://community.rstudio.com/t/git-bash-uses-different-home-directory-in-rstudio-2022-12-0-on-windows/155508), but has not yet been resolved.
For me, this means that I had the correct RSA key according to Git Bash (~/ = C:/Users/godom/) and RStudio Global Options (~/ = C:/Users/godom/), but not for the RStudio Terminal which I used in my attempts to perform a git push (~/ = C:/Users/godom/Documents/, which obviously doesn't have the expected .ssh/ folder).

That looks like you have the wrong RSA key. You should be able to check which key you are using by logging in here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://git.bioconductor.org/BiocCredentials/login/__;!!FjuHKAHQs5udqho!LGpeGB2VKDnOCR9x6ZTjbGZGzrsTdPAf9rpYI4UGgwNWl2StQ8BMlhIRUBnu9TX2pHK5nP0VaNJhbbiRsI8$

Dear BioC-Devel folks,

My package, pathwayPCA, had an error in the vignettes which I've just fixed.
It's been a few years since my last bug fix, and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
When I use "git push upstream master",  I see "mailto:git at git.bioconductor.org: Permission denied (publickey)."
Using "git remote -v" shows "upstream        mailto:git at git.bioconductor.org:packages/pathwayPCA.git (push)" (and pull).
Am I missing something simple?

Best,
Gabriel
