github.com is always an unknown host

[brandonkal]

Git push is painful with this app as it is always an unknown host. It has to be approved twice likely due to github's SSH load balancing.

There are other cases where the host appears to be unknown as well.

Github has a known key
It shouldn't be showing a different one per connection.
Have you tried adding it to your known keys?

Personally I prefer to use github with https and personal tokens

This is a bug in Krypton. It always reports an ssh request to GitHub as an unknown host (twice)

For instance my development server is simply Dev

The push notification on my Android reads
"dev @ unknown host" SSH request.

After git push, the Android app shows it in the logs as "git @ github.com"

The host is known on the server and pinned in the Krypton app.

What’s the output of ssh git@github.com -vv

See now that I open this issue it starts mysteriously working. I'll keep this open for a while to see if this pops up again. Output is essentially what is above, i.e. Host 'github.com' is known.

I'm seeing a similar issue now with another host.
When connecting with Forklift to a local server that is already known "dev" the phone prompts with "unknown host"

I'm also seeing this behavior with gitlab.com :(
