Previously, [issue 2626](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/issues/2626) was opened in the ansible-modules-core repository requesting a module for managing Github deploy keys, but it was never developed.

Since there were no takers, I decided to implement this myself. Developed a module for managing deploy keys for GitHub.

PR for github\_deploy\_key module: [https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/24364](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/24364)

Will develop modules for Bitbucket and Gitlab as time permits.
