I'm new to git, bower and electron etc.

I'm trying to install some dependencies through command line like this

bower install angular angular-route angular-material --save

It gives me error

enter image description here

I found this solution that says

You are probably behind a firewall. Try cloning via https – that has a higher chance of not being blocked

Then I tried this

bower install https://github.com/angular/bower-angular.git

but it still giving me error

enter image description here

Basically Error is

ECMDERR Failed to execute "git ls-remote --tags --heads git://github.com/angular/bower-angular.git", exit code of #128 fatal: unable to connect to github.com: github.com[0: 192.30.252.128]: errno=No such file or directory

Additional error details: fatal: unable to connect to github.com: github.com[0: 192.30.252.128]: errno=No such file or directory

Can anyone have Idea what I'm doing wrong or what I'm missing here? I'm totally stuck over here. Any kind of help will be appreciated.

I managed to get it to work after i changed my .gitconfig file to sslVerify = false

Here is how my .gitconfig looks like:

[http]
        sslVerify = false
[url "https://"]
        insteadOf = git://
[url "https://github.com/"]
        insteadOf = git://github.com/
