In the specific case of GitHub, they already support git over https. That will use the existing public key infrastructure. I had not heard until now of short-lived private keys, a new certificate being issued every minute. Do the big TLS certificate authorities support that?

Git over HTTPS is nice for read-only public repository access, but managing passwords (or tokens) is a pain that makes people prefer SSH for private repositories and pushes.
