I have a public SSH key on my MacBook, but am trying to access a host that requires it on my desktop.

How do I do that, and where do I put it on my Windows machine?

I am using gitGui on Windows and terminal git on OS X.

Why don't you just generate another key for your desktop? – Simon Fox Aug 1 '10 at 21:48

This seems more a question for Super User. – kiamlaluno Aug 1 '10 at 21:49

Copy the files from /User/< username >/.ssh/ to C:/Users/< username >/.ssh

Replace Users with "Documents and Settings" if you are on Windows XP or later. You can just copy the files with a flash drive.
