Q:

Git error: "Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists"

I am using TortoiseGit on Windows. When I am trying to Clone from the context menu of the standard Windows Explorer, I get this error:

Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists

More precisely, the snapshot of terminal is the following:

git.exe clone  --progress -v  "git@arobotdev:\git\AlfaRobot.git" "C:\Work\AlfaRobot"

  Cloning into 'C:\Work\AlfaRobot'...
  Permission denied, please try again.
  Permission denied, please try again.
  Permission denied (publickey,password).
  fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

  Please make sure you have the correct access rights
  and the repository exists.

  git did not exit cleanly (exit code 128) (21450 ms @ 19.09.2014 10:36:58)

What should I do to make git work properly ?

A:

Your git URL might have changed. Change the URL in the local directory by using the following command
git remote set-url origin git@yourGitUrlHere

A:

That problem might be having with your ssh-agent, your ssh key hasn't been added with ssh-agent.You have to apply following steps using your terminal:-

$ eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
Agent pid 5867

$ ssh-add
Enter passphrase for /home/you/.ssh/id_rsa: []
Identity added: /home/you/.ssh/id_rsa (/home/you/.ssh/id_rsa)

then it will work..cheers J.

A:

Try to use HTTPS instead SSH while taking clone from GIT, use this Url for take clone , you can use Gitbase, Android Studio or any other tool for clone the branch.
