Xcode - Authentication failed error when adding repository with SSH auth

I am trying to add repository via Xcode > Settings > Accounts and I am stuck on the proper address. Address of our repo is quite simple: my.domain.com:port/project-name. Authentication via SSH Keys. Could someone help me to understand what's going on here? See screenshot below.

By the way running git clone git+ssh://git@my.domain.com:port/project-name works fine.

EDIT

Running git clone without git+ssh//

git clone git@my.domain.cz:2222/project-name

or

git clone git@my.domain.cz:22/project-name

is giving me same error:

ssh: connect to host my.domain.cz port 22: Connection refused

fatal: Could not read from remote repository

Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

Solution

  • Xcode accepts just ssh://git@my.domain.cz:2222/project-name.

    The git protocol is somehow redundant in this case. Raw git tools don't have a problem with it, but Xcode does not like it for some reason.
