I want to clone the current develop branch

It seems like this information should be easy
to find on the boost webpage or wiki, but neither
of both explain how to authenticate myself
when using “git clone --recursive git@
github.com:boostorg/boost.git modular-boost >clone.log”.
The output of this is “Permission denied (publickey)”,
which seems to mean to me that I need a
ssh key the server actually knows about or that I have
to upload my public key somehow.
Have I just missed something on the wiki?
As Boost is hosted on GitHub, all the options it offers also work with Boost. See here: https://help.github.com/articles/which-remote-url-should-i-use/ Note that you can have anonymous read-only access if you change the URL a little: git://github.com/boostorg/boost.git That should probably be mentioned in the docs.
