Hey when i try to clone an repository it says:

fatal: Repository "..." not found

I tryed nearly everything to solve this issue but nothing works. Now i asked a workmate to try the same command, and at his computer it works. Can someone help?

The Console whole console output:

git clone https://github.com/jquery/jquery.git
cloning into 'jquery' ...
fatal: repository 'http://github.com/jquery/jquery.git/' not found

EDIT:

I checked the link and when i put it into my browser its opening the repository! And i uploaded a picture of the console: enter image description here

EDIT:

If i try it whit ssh:

git ls-remote git@github.com:jquery/jquery.git

it works, but it still doesnt work whit https, and i need that https works for bower package installs!

  • Are you sure that is the real command and output? I ask because the git clone command you're showing does in fact work. Make sure to double- and triple-check for spelling errors. – Lasse V. Karlsen Aug 22 '17 at 12:41

    What version of git are you using? That doesn't look like complete output from a git command using versions I'm familiar with – Mark Adelsberger Aug 22 '17 at 12:59

    btw, I'd look for networking issues. (Bad etc/hosts entry? DNS problem? Problem connecting to github.com?) – Mark Adelsberger Aug 22 '17 at 13:00
  • I executed the command in the console of git and in the command promt of windows! Booth are facing the same error as i said in my question. My Git Version is 2.14.1! – Tim Aug 23 '17 at 05:30
  • Are your ssh keys configured in github? You can also try using ssh url. I found a [similar question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29558484) , in which OP used ssh url and it started working. – Rohan Kumar Aug 23 '17 at 05:50
  • Yes ssh is configured! – Tim Aug 23 '17 at 07:03

Sure you have used the https address? Your errormessage speaks about a http remote.

  • In my clone command iam executing https but somehow it returns http in the error! Could it be that? And how can i change that? – Tim Aug 23 '17 at 05:31

First of all you can check whether repository exists or not by using the command:

  git ls-remote https://github.com/jquery/jquery.git

In my case i got this output(trimmed):

I tried cloning the repository both with http and https(in both cases i was able to clone this repository); i didn't encountered the problem you're facing. Since your colleague was also able to clone it, i would suggest to check for any typos in the link of the repository.

  • I copy pasted your command and it says the same error! I execute the command whit https too. But in the error it returns http! – Tim Aug 23 '17 at 05:27
  • Could you paste the entire output of all your attempts again, on pastebin or something? I think it might be a networking issue then as mentioned in comments by Mark Adelsberger. – Rohan Kumar Aug 23 '17 at 05:45

make sure you are using the root url of the repository. you will see something like clone or download. fatal error usually occurs when you try cloning sub-directories inside the repository.
