# Generate client-side key from Terminal:
cd ~
ssh-keygen -t rsa
# when it asks, don't enter a password.
# creates the following 2 files in the hidden ~/.ssh directory:
# ~/.ssh/sshid_rsa
# ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
# id_rsa.pub is the public key that gets uploaded to the server
# e.g. to your account on github
