How do i sign a commit from a cloned SSH repository in gitlab?

Im trying to commit files that i've altered but i get the error message saying "signing commits using SSH keys is not supported". How do i fix this? From what i've read, matlab only supports X509 keys. Do i have to get an specific key from the repository or create my own on the computer? Do i have to get an specific key from the repository or create my own on the computer? Thanks in advance

Hi Allan,

I tried cloning my gitlab project and was able to commit changes to the repo using the SSH keys. I am not sure what is going wrong for you, however, you can make sure you followed these steps.

1. Set up git control in MATLAB and gitlab by generating the shh-keys. Please follow this guide. https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_prog/set-up-git-source-control.html#use_ssh_authentication
2. Clone the project, and make changes.
3. Go to source control and commit. This should work fine.

Hope it resolves your issue.

Thanks,

Gyan

Thank you so much for the reply, Gyan!

Unfortunately, it did not resolve my issue. I followed these steps (i had done it before and i did it again now just to be sure) and i get the same error message!

Best regards!
