I am trying to deploy the sample Guestbook Helm Application with ArgoCD, using a private repo with SSH. I am getting the below error.
Error
rpc error: code = Unknown desc = error creating SSH agent: "SSH agent requested but SSH_AUTH_SOCK not-specified"
I've tried both URL formats with:
git@github.com:myOrg/myrepo.git
and
ssh://git@github.com/myOrg/myrepo.git
Neither work and both produce the same error. When I login to the GUI and configure the repo manually, copy and paste my private key that works, but when deploying with the YAML below, it doesn't

Turned out to be a version mismatch. I was using the ArgoCD Operator to install ArgoCD. I was using the latest ArgoCD Operator version (v.0.0.15). By default it was pulling an earlier version of Argo. I updated the ArgoCD resource to specify the latest ArgoCD version image tag (v2.1.6).
