What to do with an error when cloning a repository?

Question

git

Yesterday they downloaded a remote repository to me on tmp, today I began to set up a web server in order to deploy this site at home. But when I do a git clone on my var/www/ I get a
fatal error: Failed to read from external repository.
Make sure you have the necessary permissions
and the repository exists.
What is the problem here? Is this my fault or what?

Answer 1

Is this my fault or what?

Guilt :) no rights to the repository and that's it, without any fault.
Check:
- in Github/Bitbucket/Gitlab you must have read access to the repository
- your ssh keys must be added for the user
