VSTS - SSH Not Working

I made a repo with VSTS and cloned it, and set up all the SSH credentials correctly, but it still asks me for my username and password every time. How come?

The problem was I had the repository origin as an https url. It needs to be SSH.

git remote remove origin

git remote add origin ssh://<your-repo-location>

Or (shorter)

git remote set-url origin ssh://<your-repo-location>

(see git remote man page)
