Using Unix sockets with WSL2 on Windows Store -> How to Use Unix Sockets with WSL2 on Windows Store
Hey there! So, I've been using WSL2 with a yubikey for gpg, which is pretty sweet. Basically, this setup uses a Unix socket to Windows gpg-agent and pageant (if you're curious, you can find all the details in this GitHub repo: https://github.com/BlackReloaded/wsl2-ssh-pageant). It's been working great for about a month or so, until I recently installed the Windows Store version for WSLg support on Windows 10. But now, my WSL2 isn't talking to the Win gpg-agent anymore. I've searched GitHub for answers, but no luck yet. Figured I'd post here and see if there are others in the same boat or who might have some tips on this pesky socket issue. Thanks!

If you want to use Yubikey from WSL2 (socat passthrough), install gpg4win 3.1.16, NOT the latest (4.0) one
You should use the latest wsl2-ssh-peagent, which has a new --gpgConfigBasepath option to allow you to specify the .gnupg directory in Windows.

Tell HN: GitHub no longer supporting unauthenticated `git://`
sshCommand = C:/utils/OpenSSH-Win64/ssh.exe
For GPG, the only things I've done is to use gpg-agent and set up a passthrough for gpg-agent to WSL2 for both OpenSSH and GPG via https://github.com/BlackReloaded/wsl2-ssh-pageant/ since I do development both natively on Windows and via WSL2.

SSH Agent Restriction (new in OpenSSH 8.9)
Yeah, I've been using a Yubikey for a bit over a year and I'm already a huge fan of the way it works with SSH/Git. It's a bit more of a pain to set up with WSL2 since you need something like https://github.com/BlackReloaded/wsl2-ssh-pageant but it's absolutely worth the setup time.

How to use Windows ssh-agent on a WSL2 distribution to avoid entering SSH key passphrases?
I use PuTTY's pageant and https://github.com/BlackReloaded/wsl2-ssh-pageant to share keys between environments but you still need to enter your passphrase at power-on. Window's ssh-agent looks like a better solution. No need to re-enter the passphrase and no need to keep the private key around.

Help switching from https to SSH to push files to a repository
You can still use HTTPS, just not username/password as authentication. Personally, I think using HTTPS Git Credential Manager is simpler than SSH, as GCM allows you to use GitHub OAuth in your browser to sign in.

GCM issue
This is an application indepentend from git, so best use its channels. A quick search through their Github repo found this issue: https://github.com/GitCredentialManager/git-credential-manager/issues/899
- Tried to upload my Xcode project to GitHub through the terminal. However, I got a message asking for my GitHub password in which there is an emoji of a key, but it doesn’t let me type anything. How can I get this resolved?

Installing Git - 14 days of Git
When working with external Git repositories it is best practice to use multi-factor HTTPS authentication. It is best to leave the default option by using the built in Git Credential Manager.

(We haven't started using Git Credential Manager Core yet and I haven't done any research into it, so I don't know if it'll throw a wrench in things.)
