If problems: Too many arguments error when git create key.
运行命令ssh-keygen -t rsa -C “[email protected]”时报错：

problem everywhere:
Wrong Dash Symbol "-" in arguments The; are Started with Options "-" (minus Sign, ASCII code 0x2D) Here Follows the Command at The Same, with correct characters:.
$ SSH-keygen -t rsa -C "[email protected]"
Generating public / Private Key pair rsa.
it obviously, because of "-" question, get a day is drunk, but fortunately the problem solved. I hope everyone can help!
