+How to setup SSH
+==================
+
+There are multiple ways of setting up SSH to do what you want. First find your operating system then find what way would work best for you.
+
+Linux
+-------
+
+On linux, you need to make sure you have openssh and git installed. If you do not, install it.
+```bash
+apt-get install openssh git
+yum install openssh git
+dnf install openssh git
+pacman -S openssh git
+zypper install openssh git
+```
+
+
+### Method 1 (Easiest)
+
+1. run `ssh-keygen`
+```
+$ssh-keygen
+Generating public/private rsa key pair.
+Enter file in which to save the key (~/.ssh/id_rsa):
+Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
+Enter same passphrase again:
+Your identification has been saved in <location>.
+Your public key has been saved in <location>.
+The key fingerprint is:
+SHA256:<big hex string> 
+The key's randomart image is:
++---[RSA 2048]----+
+|                 |
+|                 |
+|   random        |
+|    stuff        |
+|      will       |
+|       be        |
+|      in         |
+|        here     |
+|                 |
++----[SHA256]-----+
+
+```
+
+2. `cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub`
+3. Paste what it spit out into your [gitlab profile's ssh keys](http://gitlab.studentnet.int/profile/keys).
+
+Windows 
+---------
+### Method 1 (Easiest)
+
+1. Open the git GUI (from the start menu).
+2. Under the help menu, click *show SSH key*.
+3. Click copy to clipboard
+4. Paste into your [gitlab profile's ssh keys](http://gitlab.studentnet.int/profile/keys).
+
+### Method 2
+
+After generating your private and public keys do this:
+
+Modify C:/Users/*username*/.ssh/config and enter the following:
+```
+ host gitlab.studentnet.int 
+   HostName gitlab.studentnet.int
+   IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_github
+   User gitlab
+```
