How to remove passphrase for the SSH key without having to create a new key?

Opened git bash.

Enter : $ ssh-keygen -p

When prompt to enter the keyfile location, just hit ENTER for default location.

Enter old passphrase

Enter new passphrase - (leave blank and hit ENTER)

Confirm new passphrase - (leave blank and hit ENTER)

And tadaa! no more pain from entering passphrase everytime u need to git push
