I'm trying to clone a repository from my organization's GitHub using GitBash, but when I do a git clone
, it hangs indefinitely. The output is as follows:
git clone https://github.com/myorganization/myrepository
Cloning into 'myrepository'...
I have looked at other stackoverflow pages. git clone hangs forever on github suggests trying to cone using git clone git@github.com/myorganization/myrepository
, which didn't work. It also suggests doing GIT_TRACE=1 GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 git clone --verbose https://github.com/myorganization/myrepository
. When I do that, I notice that it's hanging at:
[...]

(I can show the whole output if necessary.)
I've also looked at Git clone, push and pull all hang with no messages, which suggests that it may be a network issue. To diagnose the network issue, I installed GitHub Desktop, and tried the clone, which works fine. Therefore, it's not a network issue.
I've tried some other things too:
git config --global user.name[email]
to something random to trigger a login for the repo. (A login never came.)git config --global --unset http.proxy
and git config --global --unset https.proxy
If someone could help me solve this problem, I'd appreciate it. Thank-you.
this helped me: https://github.com/microsoft/Git-Credential-Manager-Core/issues/364
Basically, I just had to put this command git config --global credential.provider generic
and then clone.
Hope it works for you as well.
