I'm trying to learn how to use Git. I created a folder, and I wanted to clone a Symfony repository. I was told to use :

git clone http://github.com/symfony/symfony.git

But then I get :

Cloning into 'symfony'...
fatal: unable to access 'http://github.com/symfony/symfony.git/': Failed to connect to github.com port 80: Timed out

I can't see why I get this error and how to solve it. I tried to clone another repository like Angular, but I get the same error. Does someone knows how to solve this ?

Thanks for your help
