That is not a git question but you are using me as an ssh
helpdesk.  See ssh_config(5).

The answers are:

	IdentityFile
        User

For example, I have this in my .ssh/config on my local machine:

    Host osiris.pyramid.com
      User junio
      IdentityFile ~/.ssh/osiris-pub
      ForwardAgent no
      ForwardX11 no

Without "User", it would send out "junkio", so I have that line
to override it (I could do it with -l command line, but there is
no point because that is I would use _always_ to go there).
Without "IdentityFile" it would use ~/.ssh/identity (same
rationale with -i), which is the identity file I usually use for
other sites.
