I'm trying to figure out how to get who has made clones from git or git hub. Is there a git command that can do this?
Git hub reports clones made but not who made them.
Cheers

On Github you can see the amount of forks in your repository:
When you click on the number, you should see which users cloned the repo. For instance:
Keep in mind that clones can exist outside of Github too (e.g. Azure DevOps, GitLab, et cetera),
and that only Github clones are displayed here :)
afaik there is no git command that can retrieve this info for any remote repository, but there's a big chance that the brand new GitHub client can.

Github tracks clones under Insights > Traffic, which can be retrieved using the command line:
curl -u [username]:[password] https://api.github.com/repos/[owner]/[repo]/traffic/clones
However, Github does not have data showing who cloned repositories.
