DOC: Pandas Contribution Documentation: Forking Instructions

[puifais]

Problem description

As a newbie contributing to an open source project for the first time, I find the instruction for forking a little difficult to follow. Specifically, on this line

git clone git@github.com:your-user-name/pandas.git pandas-yourname

Output of git clone git@github.com:your-user-name/pandas.git pandas-yourname

Permission denied (publickey). fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

I was able to clone the repository by using the following code

git clone https://github.com/your-user-name/pandas.git pandas-yourname

Expected Output

Cloning into 'pandas-username'... remote: Counting objects: 124979, done. remote: Total 124979 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 124978 Receiving objects: 100% (124979/124979), 96.04 MiB | 1.89 MiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (103137/103137), done.

I am hesitant on how best to edit the documentation because I know that for people who are more experience, they know automatically to set up a key when they see the git@github.com:your-user-name/ part
