I worked my way around by using my mobile wireless-hotspot for the same and was able to do it just fine. The next day I tried doing the exact same thing since I couldn't get an answer from our university if any such firewall was blocking me from cloning it. But this time instead of failing to reach the url the command ran with the following output: gabru-md@bhaalu:~/Desktop$ git clone https://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4 Cloning into 'xfwm4'... after waiting for a few minutes the command didn't fail but it didn't show any output/stats like it does when I try to clone a repository from Github which is definitely not blocked on the university network. for eg. gabru-md@bhaalu:~/Desktop$ git clone https://github.com/gabru-md/stl-cpp Cloning into 'stl-cpp'... remote: Enumerating objects: 186, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (186/186), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (128/128), done. remote: Total 186 (delta 92), reused 146 (delta 56), pack-reused 0 Receiving objects: 100% (186/186), 105.58 KiB | 256.00 KiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (92/92), done. Furthermore the interesting thing is that I expected that my attempt at cloning the xfwm4 repository might have failed but it surprisingly did not. The command did clone the xfwm4 repository for me but it didn't print out any stats/output during that time. After searching on DuckDuckGo I saw that adding flags `--verbose --progress` will allow me to achieve the desired functionality. I tried doing the same and the output is given below. gabru-md@bhaalu:~/Desktop/test$ git clone --progress --verbose https://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4 Cloning into 'xfwm4'... gabru-md@bhaalu:~/Desktop/test$ ls xfwm4 gabru-md@bhaalu:~/Desktop/test$ cd xfwm4/ gabru-md@bhaalu:~/Desktop/test/xfwm4$ cd icons/ gabru-md@bhaalu:~/Desktop/test/xfwm4/icons$ ls 22x22 48x48 Makefile.am scalable It is evident that the cloning worked perfectly fine but there didn't seem to be any output on the terminal. At first I was convinced that it was network error because it couldn't reach the target url but now it doesn't seem to be a network problem. I am not quite sure if this unfamiliar behavior while cloning a repository is a bug or not hence I thought of reporting it. Also, Apologies if this is not a bug but something which is known already. I am currently running git version 2.17.1 on my Xubuntu. Thanks and Regards Manish Devgan manish.nsit8@gmail.com
