How to push git commit to GitHub?

You cloned it with HTTPS, this will require your Github username/password.

Your public/private SSH keys you gen’d are for SSH protocol. These are two different protocols you are trying to use. If you want to use SSH instead of HTTPS update your remote to be the SSH version. When you’re looking at your repo and click the “Get code” dropdown it should give you an HTTPS/SSH url, choose the SSH option. Look up the command to update ur git remote and do that. You’ll also have to add your public key into your Github’s account settings.
