I made sure ssh works correctly on all machines.  If I clone locally on the Windows 11 box where the repository resides, it works just fine.  Version of git on the Mac is 2.30.1, on RBPi 2.20.1, the one on Linux is 2.25.1, and Windows 10 and Windows 11 are running the git version 2.38.1-6  I downloaded the day before yesterday. Since both Windows boxes are running the latest version of git (for Windows), I'll focus on these.  Here is the output from trying from the Windows 10 machine via the LAN (but Linux, RBPi, and Mac are equivalent, modulo the dreaded backslash quirks on all non-Windows machines):
