-## SSH keys
-
-An SSH key allows you to establish a secure connection between your
-computer and GitLab.
-
-Before generating an SSH key, check if your system already has one by
-running `cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub`. If you see a long string starting with
-`ssh-rsa` or `ssh-dsa`, you can skip the ssh-keygen step.
-
-To generate a new SSH key, just open your terminal and use code below. The
-ssh-keygen command prompts you for a location and filename to store the key
-pair and for a password. When prompted for the location and filename, you
-can press enter to use the default.
-
-It is a best practice to use a password for an SSH key, but it is not
-required and you can skip creating a password by pressing enter. Note that
-the password you choose here can't be altered or retrieved.
-
-```bash
-ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "$your_email"
-```
-
-Use the code below to show your public key.
-
-```bash
-cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
-```
-
-Copy-paste the key to the 'My SSH Keys' section under the 'SSH' tab in your
-user profile. Please copy the complete key starting with `ssh-` and ending
-with your username and host.
-
-Use code below to copy your public key to the clipboard. Depending on your
-OS you'll need to use a different command:
-
-**Windows:**
-```bash
-clip < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
-```
-
-**Mac:**
-```bash
-pbcopy < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
-```
-
-**GNU/Linux (requires xclip):**
-```bash
-xclip -sel clip < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
-```

-## Deploy keys
-
-Deploy keys allow read-only access to multiple projects with a single SSH
-key.
-
-This is really useful for cloning repositories to your Continuous
-Integration (CI) server. By using deploy keys, you don't have to setup a
-dummy user account.
-
-If you are a project master or owner, you can add a deploy key in the
-project settings under the section 'Deploy Keys'. Press the 'New Deploy
-Key' button and upload a public SSH key. After this, the machine that uses
-the corresponding private key has read-only access to the project.
-
-You can't add the same deploy key twice with the 'New Deploy Key' option.
-If you want to add the same key to another project, please enable it in the
-list that says 'Deploy keys from projects available to you'. All the deploy
-keys of all the projects you have access to are available. This project
-access can happen through being a direct member of the project, or through
-a group. See `def accessible_deploy_keys` in `app/models/user.rb` for more
-information.
