Passphrase popup with EGIT and GITHUB through SSH

I have been working with EGit and JGit. I am trying to push some files to the server using JGit by right clicking the project and then doing a Push to Upstream.

Here is the popup that requests for the passphrase:

Where does this popup come from? How do I configure my EGIT inoder to avoid this request for passphrase popup?

The process I use to get to this popup is: `right click -> Team -> Push to Upstream -> I get a popup asking for Passphrase.

Use Eclipse to generate a new key - Window -> Preferences -> General -> Network Connections -> SSH2 -> Key Management

Copy the generated public key to the remote repo

Click the [Save Private Key] button without entering a passphrase

RESTART ECLIPSE

This might not ask you for passphrase again.

***Don't forget to configure your Fecth/Push Configuration.(Team->Remote->Configure Fetch/Push from Upstream) Configure Push to Upstream

Change the URI***
