-title: Getting Linux Foundation account
----
-
-In order to participate in the development of the Automotive Grade Linux
-project, you will need a Linux Foundation account. You will need to use
-your LF ID to access to all the AGL community development tools,
-including [Gerrit](http://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/),
-[Jira](https://jira.automotivelinux.org/) and the
-[Wiki](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/) (for editing, only).
-
-**NOTE:** Further information about Contributing to the AGL Distro
-available at [AGL wiki](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro/contributing).
-
-## Creating Linux Foundation ID
-
- 1. Go to the [Linux Foundation ID website](https://identity.linuxfoundation.org/).
-
- 2. Select the option `I need to create a Linux Foundation ID`, and fill
- out the form that appears. (It is advised to authenticate through email
- instead of logging through Facebook/Google/Github.)
-
- 3. Wait a few minutes, then look for an email message with the subject
- line: `Validate your Linux Foundation ID email`.
-
- 4. Open the received URL to validate your email address.
-
- 5. Verify that your browser displays the message ``You have
- successfully validated your e-mail address``.
-
- 6. Access [Gerrit](http://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/) by selecting
- ``Sign In``, and use your new Linux Foundation account ID to sign in.
-
-## Configuring Gerrit to Use SSH
-
-Gerrit uses SSH to interact with your Git client. If you already have an SSH
-key pair, you can skip the part of this section that explains how to generate one.
-
-What follows explains how to generate an SSH key pair in a Linux environment ---
-follow the equivalent steps on your OS.
-
-First, create an SSH key pair with the command:
-**Note:** This guide recommends using ed25519 keys because it has been found that this type works well across all operating systems.
-
- ```sh
- $ ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_name@example.com"
- ```
-
-**Note:** When you’re prompted to “Enter a file in which to save the key” press Enter. This accepts the default location. Next, it will ask you for a password to protect the private key as
-it generates a unique key. Please keep this password private, and DO NOT
-enter a blank password.
-
-The generated SSH key pair can be found in the files ``~/.ssh/id_ed25519`` and
-``~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub``.
-
-Next, add the private key in the ``id_ed25519`` file to your key ring, e.g.:
-
- ```sh
- $ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
- ```
-
-Finally, add the public key of the generated key pair to the Gerrit
-server, with the following steps:
-
-1. Go to [Gerrit](http://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/).
-
-2. Click on your account name in the upper right corner.
-
-3. From the pop-up menu, select ``Settings``.
-
-4. On the left side menu, click on ``SSH Public Keys``.
-
-5. Paste the contents of your public key ``~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub`` and click
- ``Add key``.
-
-**Note:** The ``id_ed25519.pub`` file can be opened with any text editor or you can run the command ``cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub`` in your terminal and copy output. Ensure that all the contents of the file are selected, copied and pasted into the ``Add SSH key`` window in Gerrit.
-
-**Note:** The SSH key generation instructions operate on the assumption
-that you are using the default naming. It is possible to generate
-multiple SSH keys and to name the resulting files differently. See the
-[ssh-keygen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ssh-keygen) documentation for
-details on how to do that. Once you have generated non-default keys, you
-need to configure SSH to use the correct key for Gerrit. In that case,
-you need to create a ``~/.ssh/config`` file with command ``touch ~/.ssh/config`` and add details in config file.
-
-```
-host gerrit.automotivelinux.org
- HostName gerrit.automotivelinux.org
- IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
- User <LFID>
- Port 29418
-```
-
-`<LFID>` is your Linux Foundation ID(username) and the value of IdentityFile is the
-name of the public key file you generated.
-
-**Warning:** Potential Security Risk! Do not copy your private key
-``~/.ssh/id_ed25519``. Use only the public ``~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub``.
