GitHub Deploy Keys Manager

English | 中文

What is

When you use deploy key to deploy multiple repositories on one server, you will need to generate a dedicated key pair for each one (GitHub does not allow you to reuse a deploy key for multiple repositories), GitHub Deploy Keys Manager (I call it gdkm below) can help you manage your deploy keys easily.
