Github cloning fatal remote error - linux

I am currently trying to clone from GitHub, and am met with an error:
git clone git://github.com/StevenHickson/PiAUISuite.git
Cloning into 'PiAUISuite'
fatal: remote error:
repository not found.
How do I go about cloning this?

You cannot use the SSH link (git:// protocol, the git#github.com thingy) for this particular repository because it isn't allowed, as we can see on the github page.
Use the HTTPS link.
git clone https://github.com/StevenHickson/PiAUISuite.git

GitHub clone issue in Ubuntu

How to solve this error
fatal: unable to find remote helper for 'https'
while cloning to Github
The command I used was: github clone "https:/.....link"
I have tried different solutions but no gain.
Do you mean : git clone instead of github clone ?
You can check related issue : "Unable to find remote helper for 'https'" during git clone

Unable to Clone/Pull Git Repository on Linux Server

I am trying to clone a git repository with URL: http://user#serverIP:port/RepositoryName on a Linux server and this is the output:
Cloning into 'RepositoryName'...
fatal: unable to access 'http://user#serverIP:port/RepositoryName/': couldn't connect to host
The same error also appears when I try to pull from the repository,
while it worked properly and cloned the repository on my windows machine.
Does anyone have an idea about the problem?

GitLab git clone

I have the following problem: I try to clone a project in GitLab using the Git command console (Git CMD) and it gives me an error, because it asks me for the permission of an unknown user. It is worth mentioning that the problem occurs with any project that you want to clone from GitLab. It always presents the same error. I attached the error capture to help me please! Regards.

Unable to git clone

I want to clone repository by using following command.
git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git
I have got following error with this command.
dev#ubuntu:/a/WebRtc/Tools$
dev#ubuntu:/a/WebRtc/Tools$git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git
Cloning into 'depot_tools'...
fatal: 'origin' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
dev#ubuntu:/a/WebRtc/Tools$
I have tried this in following ways:
Update git version.
Try with Ubuntu 15.10 and 14.04.4.
Try same command in windows machine, it working.
Such an error message during a clone (not a push or pull) indicates that git is not able to properly create the local repo.
See for instance "Cannot git clone to VMWare shared folder", where the impossibility to create hard-link was problematic.
Check:
if your user has the right to create file/symlink/hardlink, or
if there is some kind apparmor policy which would prevent/limit the creation of files in your setup, or
if /a/WebRTC is a mounted folder with restricted rights

Checking out from a git tree

I need to checkout this libunwind port for FreeBSD,
http://people.freebsd.org/~kib/git/libunwind.git/
I've never used git before and when i tried to checkout using the command
git checkout http://people.freebsd.org/~kib/git/libunwind.git/
I get the following error,
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
What should I do to fix this?
Following should do it:
git clone http://people.freebsd.org/~kib/git/libunwind.git/
If you are coming from svn background, read this.
You should read a basic tutorial on git before trying to use it. Git is not a centralised system. You should clone if you want to get a repository.
You're supposed to clone it, no? It will create a copy onto your system:
git clone http://people.freebsd.org/~kib/git/libunwind.git/ local-dir
