Git: Permission denied (publickey) fatal - Could not read from remote repository. while cloning Git repository

Question

I am unable to clone a Git repository, and getting this error:

krishna.soni@KRISHNACHANDRAS /c/Projects $ git clone http://stage.abc.com:10088/pqr
http://<         


        

Answer 1

For people that come here that are just trying to get the repository but don't care about the protocol (ssh / https), you might just want to use https instead of ssh (if it's supported).

So for example you use

git clone https://github.com/%REPOSITORYFOLDER%/%REPOSITORYNAME%.git

instead of

git clone git@github.com:%REPOSITORYFOLDER%/%REPOSITORYNAME%.git
