Make macOS remember your SSH keys after restart
### We need to tell macOS to add the keys to the agent, in order to make them persistent after reboot.
We have to create new file in `~/.ssh/` called `config`
```bash
vi ~/.ssh/config
```
with the following content:
```bash
Host *
AddKeysToAgent yes
UseKeychain yes
```
Then, we need to add our keys to the agent and macOS keychain (so your private key password is remembered).
```bash
ssh-add -D
ssh-add -K ~/.ssh/*
```
To verify that our keys are present in the agent:
```bash
ssh-add -l
```
