It does, and even let's you know it did:

$ ssh-keygen 
                                               Generating public/private 
rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/ekalin/.ssh/id_rsa):
Created directory '/home/ekalin/.ssh'.
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in /home/ekalin/.ssh/id_rsa
Your public key has been saved in /home/ekalin/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
...
