The command

Cloning into 'starlink'...

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

I assume that this is my fault for having changed my keys since the last time I checked anything out?

Who should I send my public key to?

You upload it to github. It may be that you've never done that before, hence the problem. You can use the https interface if you want to be typing in passwords.

 

This relates to another issue I have of trying to do stuff connected with starlink on both my desktop and laptop. My understanding is that having the same keys on both your desktop and laptop is a big no-no. If so, how do I carry out work on my desktop during office hours say and my laptop when on the road, at home etc? Do I just send the public key for each separate machine I want to have access?

Yes. Github lets you store multiple keys associated with your account.
