After updating to MacOS Sequoia I can't login to ssh servers and git stopped working, any ideas on how to fix it?

GIT_SSH_COMMAND="ssh -vvv -o \"ConnectTimeout 10\"" git pull

OpenSSH_9.8p1, LibreSSL 3.3.6

debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config

...

debug2: resolving "gitlab.com" port 22

debug3: resolve_host: lookup gitlab.com:22

ssh: Could not resolve hostname gitlab.com: nodename nor servname provided, or not known

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

It was my internet provider that somehow started blocking it, it started working once i switched to mobile hotspot.

First make sure that Private WiFi is turned off, the firewall is turned off, and any VPN is turned off. Then try it again.

Are you using RSA ssh-keygen keys? The OpenSSH package depreciated the RSA based keys a few macOS versions ago.

You can try adding the following to your Mac's $HOME/.ssh/config file

Host *
    HostkeyAlgorithms        +ssh-rsa
    PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms +ssh-rsa
