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

It may be stupid but it happened to us:

If you are using bitbucket and Sourcetree and you just copy paste the clone URL to the new repo dialog it will show the same error when pulling or pushing.

Make sure you delete the 'git clone' stuff before the URL.
