Description
If any private repository is used as a dependency in a project, the following error appears after running swift_package_test.yml:
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
This issue can be resolved by adding this action as a new step before checkout step:
- name: Add keys to ssh-agent
uses: webfactory/ssh-agent@v0.7.0
with:
ssh-private-key: |
${{ secrets.YOUR_SECRET_HERE }}
I am happy to provide a PR, if that would be useful.

Research direction
Start with .github/workflows/swift_package_test.yml and inspect the checkout step and its handling of private Swift package dependencies. Reproduce the failure with a private repository dependency, then verify that the workflow can access it using the issue's proposed SSH-agent configuration and that the workflow completes successfully.
