title: How can I perform a `git pull` without re-entering my SSH password?
body: <p>Is it possible to configure <code>git/ssh</code> so I don't have to enter my passphrase every time I want to perform a <code>git pull</code>?   Note that the repo is a private one on github.</p>
  
  <p>Or, alternatively, what would be the best practice to automate code deployment from a private Github repo?</p>
