Summary git clone git://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git fails

Reported 2014-02-22 00:18:29 PST
If I try to do git clone git://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git it fails with: fatal: unable to access 'https://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git/': Failed connect to git.webkit.org:443; Operation timed out I heard of others with the same problem, so far I don't know what is going on. I tried the git version from Xcode initially and then tried homebrew git. Both give the same mistake. So it might not be an issue with git?

The error message you quote mentions _https_://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git/, not _git_://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git. That suggests you're not doing "git clone git://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git" at all.

Well, I still do git clone git://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git though :) I don't know why the address is resolved to https.

I've no idea why you'd be seeing that. I'm successfully able to "git clone git://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git" from a number of different machines running various different versions of OS X and Linux.

I commented out these lines in .gitconfig and it seemed to fix it: [url "https://"] insteadOf = git:// This should actually allow both git:// and https://. Maybe it prefers https:// and the server never responses.
