I have a remote repository on my local server and I wanted to clone it into my local machine using Git Ahead, and I'm using Windows 10.

I get this error:

"Failed to clone into 'my directory' - failed to find SSH identity file". 

I'm using the username and password authentication, I do not use key-based authentication. I can log in to the remote server with a username and password. The server is a Linux server, and other mac users can use the git properly.

You can try and follow gitahead/gitahead issue 465:

Before cloning, goto Tools > Options > Misc.

Specify the path to the id_rsa private key file (or similar key file) in the "Path to default / fallback SSH key file" text field.
