The only way I can edit Puppet config files is by git. And the only way I can git pull/push/commit/etc is generating a ssh key with a private key and give my public key to my supervisor to the git server (wherever that may be).

Because I'm on Windows 10 and screwed up my installers, I completely forgot to backup my ssh keys before resetting it. FML

You can generate a new one and submit that just fine. You can have hundreds of different public keys in your git config. Just run puttygen, or login to literally any machine with ssh-keygen installed, run 'ssh-keygen -t rsa', and save the public and private keys.

@bahua my rant is that I failed to backup a new one. I mean sure, I managed to request my supervisor to update my new public key, that's ok but the point that I didn't backup my keys was a bad move before resetting the PC.
