Hi, thanks for this incredible project. It has made spinning up k8s on Hetzner so much simpler.
I am curious about one thing: why do we need to provide an SSH private key, here:
terraform-hcloud-kube-hetzner/kube.tf.example
Line 40 in e911232
I know it says to read the SSH docs (https://github.com/kube-hetzner/terraform-hcloud-kube-hetzner/blob/master/docs/ssh.md), but I also don't see any answer there.
Ideally, I would like to avoid providing my private key to any piece of software that I don't fully understand. For the time-being, I've just generated another key pair for use with this project.
