There are primary 2 ways you can clone a Github Repository SSH or Https.

If you have cloned your repository with Https method after adding SSH key it will ask you username and password.

To check which version you are using you can run "git remote -v".

If the resposne is having url with "https". You have to update your origin. Please follow steps mentioned in this link.
