https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/governance/policies/commit/
links to
https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh
for SSH key generation instructions.
That links to
https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent
which mentions the command ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_email@example.com" and will generate an id_ed25519 and id_ed25519.pub key pair of files. ssh hg.mozilla.org -l your@login.org will fail on Windows in the MozillaBuild environment because it only checks for id_rsa and id_dsa (shown with -vvvv appended to the command).
Do we have to link to other key generation instructions or is there an ssh update in MozillaBuild upcoming?

This will be resolved by the upcoming MozillaBuild 4.0, which
- Includes a newer OpenSSH, but
- Uses Windows' SSH by default
You can work around this by invoking ssh-keygen within MozillaBuild 3.4 without explicitly requesting a modern key type.
