git version 2.20.1 I just went to clone a repo on github on a dev server that I hadn't used since March 1 2023. Github updated their RSA key on March 24th. So I got this message. Warning: the ECDSA host key for 'github.com' differs from the key for the IP address '140.82.113.3' Offending key for IP in /[...]/.ssh/known_hosts:8 Matching host key in /[...]/.ssh/known_hosts:18 Of course it was the RSA key that had changed, and known_hosts:8 was an RSA key, but the error said the ECDSA key was wrong. After removing the bogus RSA key from the file it worked fine with the matching ECDSA key. This error should probably report the correct type for the key that is wrong rather than the key it’s trying to use. :)
