Clone a git repo on a Linux box

I only have access to a RedHat box through ssh commands that I can connect to it. Now I want to copy my code from GitHub to that box.

In the browser view of my github I see two things: one for HTTP and one for SSH.

Does that mean I should use the SSH one? How?

I have used the HTTP one before by saying git clone thatHTTPAddrees

If you want to clone over ssh first you will need to set up your ssh key with ssh-keygen A full walk through for generating keys and cloning over ssh can be found at https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys

Once you do that you can use git clone [email protected]/<repo path>
