I am unable to clone my repository via HTTPS:
git clone https://github.com/walterjwhite/project.configuration.git
Output:
Initialized empty Git repository in ./project.configuration/.git/
error: Failed connect to github.com:443; Connection refused while accessing https://github.com/walterjwhite/project.configuration.git/info/refs
fatal: HTTP request failed
I have configured the .netrc file with my login and password as well as the machine or server I am connecting to.
As you did saw yourself in GitHub support, Scott Schacon himself suggested:
So I guess your
.netrc
is incorrect or something?
Try removing the info from your.netrc
and cloning first (since it's a public repo).
If it isn't a GitHub server issue, it could be your firewall.
And/or your proxy (git config --global http.proxy http://user:password@proxy:xxx
).
