go get with private gitlab repo

Question

Despite all the attempts I can't succeed in using "go get" to get a private repo from gitlab I've tried with .netrc, gitconfig but it doesnt work. I have a private machine with git on it, suppose it is mymachine.prv

git config --global url."git@mymachine.prv:".insteadOf "https://mymachine.prv/"

I run this command from a virtual machine with user "gp" and it keeps asking me the password for gp@mymachine.prv

So I have generated the public key with ssh-keygen and added to gitlab account, but no luck.

Any help please?

Did you add the ssh key for that user to your gitlab account? I am using private repos without any problems with that key set. — Burak Serdar, Oct 02 '19 at 14:16
@bserdar yes, I added the ssh pub key. If I use "git clone" it prompts me for the username and so I can pass username and password of the gitlab user. — gianpaolo, Oct 02 '19 at 14:21

I guess it should helps you. You miss the ssh://

Post for example how it works: https://www.scivision.dev/git-pull-https-push-ssh/

git config --global url."ssh://git@mymachine.prv/".insteadOf "https://mymachine.prv/"

it says this: # cd .; git ls-remote https:/// ssh: Could not resolve hostname http: Temporary failure in name resolution fatal: Could not read from remote repository. – gianpaolo Oct 02 '19 at 14:29
@gianpaolo usually it says if you're add wrong ssh-key https://github.com/jakubroztocil/cloudtunes/issues/23 – frankegoesdown Oct 02 '19 at 14:37
@gianpaolo I updated the answer 12mins ago. Maybe you're trying not a final version of answer – frankegoesdown Oct 02 '19 at 14:42
I added a new ssh-key, nothing changed :( – gianpaolo Oct 02 '19 at 14:49
yes, I used yr edited method. same errors and prompts to enter the password of the user of the local machine (the one where I run the command) – gianpaolo Oct 02 '19 at 14:51
Thank you. I also had to switch to a virtual machine in the same subnet, but yor config was necessary too. :-) – gianpaolo Oct 02 '19 at 16:09

When using Personal access token for .netrc approach, ensure that the project/repo is in a group that you have access to. Also, the scope of the PAT should have read_api, and read_repository.
