Could you check what version of git you have on cygwin (git --version)? You could also try cloning the repo over http:// instead of git://. -- Cheers, Ray Chuan ``` ## Caleb Cushing, 2009-04-26 10:24 Subject: Re: cygwin - clone on repo fails Message-ID: <81bfc67a0904260324x2e156097w9239349dda45062@mail.gmail.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/81bfc67a0904260324x2e156097w9239349dda45062%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` On Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 7:18 AM, Tay Ray Chuan wrote: > Could you check what version of git you have on cygwin (git --version)? > > You could also try cloning the repo over http:// instead of git://. I think it's 1.6.1.2 .. using cygwin 1.7.0 beta I'd have to double check though... I'll try the other later, the unfortunate thing here is that I really only use windows like once a week while I'm in school. I suppose I can boot my windows part on my laptop later and try to get it working. -- Caleb Cushing http://xenoterracide.blogspot.com ```
