Using TM1 and the terminal work fine, but TM2 fails and returns "Permission denied (publickey)." to see what's happening in TM2 I dia "ssh -vT git at github.com^R" and compared its output to the same command in TM1. Here's a snippet:

Yes, it's the correct key. For comparison, here's the same snippet for the command run in TM1 (I'm happy to send the full output to you, Allan, if you think it will help).

    debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey
	debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
	debug1: Offering RSA public key: /Users/alan/.ssh/id_rsa
	debug1: Remote: Forced command: gerve [USERNAME]
	debug1: Remote: Port forwarding disabled.
	debug1: Remote: X11 forwarding disabled.
	debug1: Remote: Agent forwarding disabled.
	debug1: Remote: Pty allocation disabled.
	debug1: Server accepts key: pkalg ssh-rsa blen 277
	debug1: Remote: Forced command: gerve ats
	debug1: Remote: Port forwarding disabled.
	debug1: Remote: X11 forwarding disabled.
	debug1: Remote: Agent forwarding disabled.
	debug1: Remote: Pty allocation disabled.
	debug1: Authentication succeeded (publickey).
	Authenticated to github.com ([207.97.227.239]:22).

I've tried the permission settings and ~/.ssh/config changes suggested at http://help.github.com/ssh-issues/ -- they don't seem to have any effect.
