This key is not connected to the objects JGit is using... which is
probably why you are getting an authentication failure. Don't you need
to add the key inside of the jschConfigSessionFactory?

The name in the last column of the key (e.g. "user@android") is just a
comment. It is there to help you remember what the key was created for
when you paste it into an authorized_keys file. It doesn't need to
match anything real.
