Run the following command to add a new key: 
cat /path/to/public_key | ssh root@yourdokkuinstance "sudo sshcommand acl-add dokku [description]"

[description] can be anything as long as it is one word only (e.g. "personal", "home", etc.).

    How would you do this in Windows? Can I just copy/paste my key into the authorized_keys file?

    Try running:

    type "C:\path\to\public_key" | ssh root@yourdokkuinstance "sudo sshcommand acl-add dokku [description]"

    On a mac (and most unix-based machines), this will be:

    cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh root@yourdokkuinstance "sudo sshcommand acl-add dokku laptop"

I have a problem, I started using dukke I was able to add ssh key, but when wanting to add another key using git and git push dokku master, I asked for a password I had lost 3 days in the forum everything is confusing ..
