I'm a complete beginner in tech and coding. I decided to join a bootcamp that starts in December. I've been trying to get some pre-work done for the bootcamp and have been stuck when it comes Github and to setting up SSH keys. I created an SSH key on my Mac and added the key to my Github, but in the terminal it says that "Warning: Permanently added 'github.com' (ED25519) to the list of known hosts. Hi ! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access."
And after that, I am trying the "git remote -v" command and getting: "fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git"
Could this have anything to do with not having a repo set up in Github? Is that what I need to do first? I'm finding it challenging and I am doing my best to learn more about GitHub but I'm feeling a bit lost. Does anyone have good resources that helped them with Github and get a better understanding or know why I am getting these messages in the terminal?
Thank you!
