hashbang.sh assumes that the private key is stored on the machine where it runs #168

I am usually using ssh-agent forwarding to get the key and have the actual private key only stored on my Windows machine in putty

When running the script on a linux machine I am logged in, it detects that no private key file is present and wants to create a new key. I worked around that by creating a id_rsa file with touch, maybe it would be possible to have an option to just use the id_rsa.pub file to create the account instead of creating a new key

@alexlehm Thanks for the suggestion!

For what it's worth, we are in the process of replacing the signup script with a terminal UI accessible by SSHing into hashbang.sh, though it's not yet advertised as there still are issues with it. (Like being currently broken due to a networking bug with DO's flavour of k8s...)
