Open the terminal window in the Azure Machine Learning Notebook Tab.

Paste the text below, substituting in your email address.

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your_email@example.com"
This creates a new ssh key, using the provided email as a label.
> Generating public/private rsa key pair.
When you're prompted to "Enter a file in which to save the key" press Enter. This accepts the default file location.
Verify that the default location is '/home/azureuser/.ssh' and press enter. Otherwise specify the location '/home/azureuser/.ssh'.
Make sure the SSH key is saved in '/home/azureuser/.ssh'. This file is saved on the compute instance is only accessible by the owner of the Compute Instance
> Enter a file in which to save the key (/home/azureuser/.ssh/id_rsa): [Press enter]
At the prompt, type a secure passphrase. We recommend you add a passphrase to your SSH key for added security
> Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): [Type a passphrase]
> Enter same passphrase again: [Type passphrase again]
Add the public key to Git Account
In your terminal window, copy the contents of your public key file. If you renamed the key, replace id_rsa.pub with the public key file name.
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
Copy and Paste in Terminal
Windows: Ctrl-Insert to copy and use Ctrl-Shift-v or Shift-Insert to paste.
Mac OS: Cmd-c to copy and Cmd-v to paste.
FireFox/IE may not support clipboard permissions properly.
Select and copy the SSH key output to your clipboard.
Next, follow the steps to add the SSH key to your preferred account type:
GitHub
GitLab
Azure DevOps  Start at Step 2.
BitBucket. Follow Step 4.
Clone the Git repository with SSH
Copy the SSH Git clone URL from the Git repo.
Paste the url into the git clone command below, to use your SSH Git repo URL. This will look something like:
git clone git@example.com:GitUser/azureml-example.git
Cloning into 'azureml-example'...
You will see a response like:
The authenticity of host 'example.com (192.30.255.112)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is SHA256:nThbg6kXUpJWGl7E1IGOCspRomTxdCARLviKw6E5SY8.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'github.com,192.30.255.112' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
SSH may display the server's SSH fingerprint and ask you to verify it. You should verify that the displayed fingerprint matches one of the fingerprints in the SSH public keys page.
SSH displays this fingerprint when it connects to an unknown host to protect you from man-in-the-middle attacks. Once you accept the host's fingerprint, SSH will not prompt you again unless the fingerprint changes.
When you are asked if you want to continue connecting, type yes. Git will clone the repo and set up the origin remote to connect with SSH for future Git commands.
Track code that comes from Git repositories
When you submit a training job from the Python SDK or Machine Learning CLI, the files needed to train the model are uploaded to your workspace. If the git command is available on your development environment, the upload process uses it to check if the files are stored in a git repository. If so, then information from your git repository is also uploaded as part of the training job. This information is stored in the following properties for the training job:
Property
Git command used to get the value
Description
azureml.git.repository_uri
git ls-remote --get-url
The URI that your repository was cloned from.
mlflow.source.git.repoURL
git ls-remote --get-url
The URI that your repository was cloned from.
azureml.git.branch
git symbolic-ref --short HEAD
The active branch when the job was submitted.
mlflow.source.git.branch
git symbolic-ref --short HEAD
The active branch when the job was submitted.
azureml.git.commit
git rev-parse HEAD
The commit hash of the code that was submitted for the job.
mlflow.source.git.commit
git rev-parse HEAD
The commit hash of the code that was submitted for the job.
azureml.git.dirty
git status --porcelain .
True, if the branch/commit is dirty; otherwise, false.
This information is sent for jobs that use an estimator, machine learning pipeline, or script run.
If your training files are not located in a git repository on your development environment, or the git command is not available, then no git-related information is tracked.
To check if the git command is available on your development environment, open a shell session, command prompt, PowerShell or other command line interface and type the following command:
git --version
If installed, and in the path, you receive a response similar to git version 2.4.1. For more information on installing git on your development environment, see the Git website.
View the logged information
The git information is stored in the properties for a training job. You can view this information using the Azure portal or Python SDK.
Azure portal
From the studio portal, select your workspace.
Select Jobs, and then select one of your experiments.
Select one of the jobs from the Display name column.
Select Outputs + logs, and then expand the logs and azureml entries. Select the link that begins with ###_azure.
The logged information contains text similar to the following JSON:
