It's SHA-1 that's deprecated, not SHA as a whole. Pretty sure ssh-keygen hasn't been using SHA-1 for a long time now. SHA-2 was published in 2001 and SHA-3 in 2015. I think ssh-keygen still uses SHA-2 (specifically SHA-256) but I'm not sure.

To be honest I'm not clear on where exactly the hashing algorithm comes into play in private/public key based authentication with SSH, so I can't tell which of the hashing related defaults mentioned in the man page of ssh-keygen applies here. It mentions sha256 in some place and sha512 in some other place as being the default. It mentions "SHA1" somewhere as an option and says it's not recommended.
