A small update to the README, which includes text to address an error msg. users will encounter if trying to fetch upstream w/o a SSH key. As of August 2021, GitHub deprecated password-based authentication for Git operations, encouraging users to adopt more secure methods like PATs and SSH keys. Adding a new SSH key fixes the error, and allows users to fetch upstream. Added the github link for the how-to in the README.

I also made this small change to test my setup :)
