🔐 Before You Push

Important: GitHub Authentication

GitHub requires authentication. You have two options:

Option A: Personal Access Token (Recommended)

  1. Go to GitHub: https://github.com/settings/tokens
  2. Generate new token (classic):
    • Click "Generate new token (classic)"
    • Name: "Paddle Decoder"
    • Scopes: Check "repo" (all sub-options)
    • Expiration: Choose your preference
    • Click "Generate token"
  3. Copy the token (you'll only see it once!)
  4. Use when pushing: 
    git push -u origin main
# Username: dd6ds
# Password: [paste your token here]

Option B: SSH Key (More Secure)

  1. Generate SSH key:

    ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_email@example.com"

  2. Add to ssh-agent:

    eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519

  3. Copy public key:

    cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub

  4. Add to GitHub:

  5. Change remote to SSH:

    cd /home/developer/rust/paddle_decoder_cross_platform
git remote set-url origin git@github.com:dd6ds/paddle_decoder_cross_platform.git

  6. Push:

    git push -u origin main

🚀 Ready to Push!

Using HTTPS (with token):

cd /home/developer/rust/paddle_decoder_cross_platform

# Push to GitHub
git push -u origin main

# When prompted:
# Username: dd6ds
# Password: [paste your personal access token]

Using SSH (if configured):

cd /home/developer/rust/paddle_decoder_cross_platform

# Change remote to SSH
git remote set-url origin git@github.com:dd6ds/paddle_decoder_cross_platform.git

# Push to GitHub
git push -u origin main
