“Unable to find remote helper for 'https'” during git clone

问题:

I am unable to clone HTTPS repositories. I can clone SSH repos fine, but not HTTPS repos. I cannot test the GIT protocol since I am behind a corporate firewall.

This is what I am trying to do:

$ git clone https://github.com/nvie/gitflow.git Cloning into gitflow... fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'https'

I have so far tried the following (based on Google searches)

• Purging and installing Git through apt-get
• Installing build-deps for Git through apt-get
• Installing curl dev libraries
• Installing expat libraries
• Downloading Git source and building using:
  • ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-curl --with-expat
  • Also tried pointing configure at curl binary (./configure --prefix=/usr --with-curl=/usr/bin/curl)

I have tried everything I can find on the internet with no luck. Can anyone help me?

Git version = 1.7.6.4

OS = Ubuntu 11.04

回答1:

It looks like not having (lib)curl-devel installed when you compile git can cause this.

If you install (lib)curl-devel, and then rebuild/install git, this should solve the problem:

$ yum install curl-devel $ # cd to wherever the source for git is $ cd /usr/local/src/git-1.7.9   $ ./configure $ make $ make install

This worked for me on Centos 6.3.

If you don't have yum, you can download the source to curl-devel here:

• http://curl.haxx.se/dlwiz/?type=devel

---

If you are running Ubuntu instead:

sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

If you are trying to clone then you could use the git transport

For example: git clone git://github.com/fog/fog.git

Vaio ~/Myworks/Hero $ git clone git://github.com/fog/fog.git

I used "git://" instead of "https://" and that solved the problem. My final command was:

git clone --recursive git://github.com/ceph/ceph.git

回答4:

Just in case someone encounters this on a QNAP system or any other system with OPKG as package manager:

You need to install git-http along with git. Like:

opkg install git-http

回答5:

On CentOS 5.x, installing curl-devel fixed the problem for me.

回答6:

I had same problem and simple to resolve it.

Just uninstall git and re-install it.

#apt-get remove --purge git-svn git-core #rm /usr/local/bin/git #apt-get install git-svn git-core

and everything works well.

Hope this help.

I had the exact same issue and it boiled down to an unmet dependency, however, I tried the accepted answer's solution and it did not work.

What finally worked for me was installing all of the following (this is RedHat):

sudo yum install curl-devel expat-devel gettext-devel openssl-devel zlib-devel

Afterwards, I ran the other commands as specified and it worked:

./configure make sudo make prefix=/usr/local install

I pulled the list of dependencies directly from Git's website. Apparently I should have started there :/

回答8:

This worked for me in Centos 6.6 to install git 2.3.1:

1. I didn't have curl-devel installed (checking for curl_global_init in -lcurl... no). The key was to generate configure script

2. add rpmforge for docboox2x

3. install packages

   yum install openssl-devel zlib-devel perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker svn tcl perl-Locale-Msgfmt gettext asciidoc xmlto docbook2x

4. make symlink

   ln -s /usr/bin/db2x_docbook2texi /usr/bin/docbook2x-texi

5. build git

   # download latest relase from https://github.com/git/git/releases curl -O -J -L https://github.com/git/git/archive/v2.13.0.tar.gz tar xf git-2.13.0.tar.gz cd git-2.13.0 make configure ./configure --prefix=/usr make all doc make install install-doc install-html

I was having this issue when using capistrano to deploy a rails app. The problem was that my user only had a jailed shell access in cpanel. Changing it to normal shell access fixed my problem.

回答10:

On Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks, the solution that worked is as follows

rvm pkg install openssl CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc-4.2 CPP=/usr/local/bin/cpp-4.2 CXX=/usr/local/bin/g++-4.2  rvm install 1.9.3 --with-openssl-dir=$rvm_path/usr

This is to compile Ruby with OpenSSL Support. Next, uninstall all the old versions.

brew uninstall openssl brew uninstall curl brew uninstall git

Next, install the updated versions. The git installation is dependent on an updated version of CURL.

brew install openssl brew install curl brew install git

回答11:

I had a lot of problems with this remote helper issue. I ensured that I had installed all the expat, curl etc. but finally resolved it by updating gcc after finding that version 4.4.4 was duff. Just did a yum update and recompiled with 4.4.6.

回答12:

On centos 7:

$ yum install curl-devel $ yum reinstall git

回答13:

I got the same problem today: git http broken after years of happy service. It seems caused by some Perl lib updates. Tried some sane suggestions on web, none worked. Had enough, I just removed all git stuff, got a new tarball from http://git-scm.com/, compiled and installed, and all things are back to normal. Give it try, or you can go dig deep into your logs...

回答14:

I had to add a couple of extra installs running CentOS release 5.10 (Final):

yum install openssl097a.x86_64  yum install openssl-perl.x86_64 

Using git-1.8.5: ./configure make clean make make install

git clone https://github.com/michaelficarra/CoffeeScriptRedux.git Cloning into 'CoffeeScriptRedux'... remote: Reusing existing pack: 4577, done. remote: Counting objects: 24, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (23/23), done. remote: Total 4601 (delta 13), reused 11 (delta 1) Receiving objects: 100% (4601/4601), 2.60 MiB | 126.00 KiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (2654/2654), done. Checking connectivity... done.

回答15:

I landed here once because I was working with git itself. When I built it the default makefile installed the binary in ~/bin/git. Since my PATH had ~/bin first when I ran 'git pull --rebase' it used the one in ~/bin and consequently could not locate the helpers.

I worked around the issue by running '/usr/bin/git ...' with a full path (alternatively I could have adjusted my PATH).

回答16:

For those using git with Jenkins under a windows system, you need to configure the location of git.exe under: Manage Jenkins => Global Tool Configuration => Git => Path to Git executable and fill-in the path to git.exe, for example; C:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe

回答17:

The easiest way to fix this problem is to ensure that the git-core is added to the path for your current user

If you add the following to your bash profile file in ~/.bash_profile this should normally resolve the issue

PATH=$PATH:/usr/libexec/git-core

回答18:

worked

1- I had to remove git:

sudo apt-get remove git

2- re - install git with the -all suffix:

sudo apt-get install git-all

as taught here: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git

3- checked all settings (user name & email) of my github account

by the way I was mistaken the good email which was the source of my errors ;) https://github.com/settings/profile
check your username
https://github.com/settings/emails
check your email is the good one

4- I have followed the tutorial of git here

https://help.github.com/articles/connecting-to-github-with-ssh

回答19:

In my case nothing was successful, after a while looking what was happening I found this on my config file. Not sure how it got there

% cat ~/.gitconfig  [user]     email = xxxxxxx@gmail.com     name = xxxxxx [alias]     g = grep -n -i --heading --break [url "git+https://github.com/"]     insteadOf = git@github.com: [url "git+https://"]     insteadOf = git://

After removing the url properties everything was working fine again
