Updating github repository

I made changes to my Langstone code (LangstoneGUI_Pluto.c) on the RP itself (via Putty from another computer). Now I am unable to push these changes back to my github at my repository n5bravofoxtrot / Langstone-V2-N5BF. It doesn't allow password authentication from the RP.
What is the right/best way to push changes to github?
Thanks, Courtney N5BF

I don't have any experience of updating Github from a Raspberry Pi, but I am sure it should be possible. This forum might not be the best place to find the answer.
When developing Langstone I keep a copy of the repository on my PC and do all of the GitHub updates from there. Transfering the files to the Pi using Filezilla.
I did see that you created a Pull Request on my main Langstone repository yesterday and then deleted it, so you may need to check you have your own GitHub fork selected correctly.

Hi Courtney
You need to add an SSH key from your Raspberry Pi to your GitHub account:

I push all the Portsdown updates to GitHub from Raspberry Pis.
