"git clone" for WKND Project fails with the Permission denied Error.

Team, 

 

I am going through WKND Tutorial and encountered an issue executing "git clone" 

Command, taken right from Tutorial. Namely:

  $git clone git@github.com:adobe/aem-guides-wknd.git
  Error manifestation is:

  Permission denied (publickey).
  fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

 

So... Did I miss something in the Tutorial? How can I provide access rights to Adobe GIT Repository? Please note also that I do realize that I can probably bypass it by direct download, etc. Still, I'd like to do it "by the book".

 

Any help appreciated.

Environment: Linux Mint 18.2 'Sofia', KDE 64. Java 11.0.8, AEM 6.5, Local instance.
