 SSH authentication is mutual:
 
 - You have to prove to the server that you're allowed to access the repository.
 - The server also has to prove to *you* that it's who it claims to be.
 
-You provide your credentials as a password or public key. The server that the source repository
-resides on provides its credentials as a "host key", the fingerprint of which needs to be verified manually.
