Hi,
This morning I noticed this error while attempting to update a project on
my server via `git clone` (I'm using Ansible's ssh-agent-forwarding, which
worked fine for months)

"Failed to download remote objects and refs:
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@ WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)!
It is also possible that a host key has just been changed.
The fingerprint for the RSA key sent by the remote host is
SHA256:uNiVztksCsDhcc0u9e8BujQXVUpKZIDTMczCvj3tD2s.
Please contact your system administrator.
Add correct host key in /home/ubuntu/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this
message.
Offending RSA key in /home/ubuntu/.ssh/known_hosts:1
remove with:
ssh-keygen -f \"/home/ubuntu/.ssh/known_hosts\" -R \"github.com\"
RSA host key for github.com has changed and you have requested strict
checking.
Host key verification failed.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

The fix didn't solve the problem, just changed the error message:
<quote>
TASK [SOFTWARE - Clone xxx-project (run as non-privileged user)]
********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [server]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "cmd": ["/usr/bin/git",
"fetch", "--tags", "--force", "origin"], "msg": "Failed to download remote
objects and refs: Host key verification failed.\r\nfatal: Could not read
from remote repository.\n\nPlease make sure you have the correct access
rights\nand the repository exists.\n"}
</quote>
I then discovered this blog entry which states, that Github updated their
RSA SSH key this morning:
https://github.blog/2023-03-23-we-updated-our-rsa-ssh-host-key/
Now, everything they suggest work somehow. But it doesn't fix the problem,
that I'm unable to clone my project on the target machine.
Anybody having the same issue and maybe a solution?
