I created ssh key as per this tutorial.
Assigned it to the ssh-agent.
Added it to the github account as per this tutorial.
ssh-add -l -E md5
Shows correct footprint
ssh -T git@github.com
Says:
Hi <My username>! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.
But still:
git push
Asks for:
Username for 'https://github.com':
Any idea? Thanks in advance.

Check out this: switching-remote-urls-from-https-to-ssh
High are the changes that you clone your repo over HTTPS and now want to push using SSH.
As suggested on the GitHub site check your remote origin by doing this:
$ git remote -v
origin https://github.com/USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (fetch)
origin https://github.com/USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (push)
In case you have https...
change it to ssh
by doing something like this:
git remote set-url origin git@github.com:USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git
