Hello,

I think cloning a private repository from GitHub to remote server is quite a hassle. The steps are:-

- Create ssh key
- add it Github ssh keys
- copy private and public key to the remote server and clone

Can I clone a git repo sitting on my local machine to remote machine?  
Can it be done using ansible git module?  
since I am already ssh-ing into remote machine

Cheers  
Praveen
