Re: error in git clone

Hi Mayank

sudo git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git Initialized empty Git repository in /home/mayank/linuxkernel/linux-stable/.git/ ^[[Agit.kernel.org[0: 149.20.4.72]: errno=Connection timed out fatal: unable to connect a socket (Connection timed out)

I tried disabling firewall also but that is also of not help.

Any reasons why this error is happening and how can i get over this.

Most probably your company's firewall is blocking the git protocol. You can try to clone using http or https url instead of git url. -- Manavendra Nath Manav
