I am new to node modules and git. Should i have to do any configuration related to GIT in node modules?

[Edit]: I am behind a corporate proxy. Should have to give any configuration related to that? I added proxy details in.npmrc file in users/<username>/.npmrc file. My path variable has the Git/bin location as well.

Answer 1

This question has an answer in an other thread . The issue occurred since I was behind corporate proxy. And @bnguyen82 's answer helped me finally.

I just used the following command and the issue got resolved.

git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://

Answer 2

The accepted answer alone did not help me. Finally it worked after I cleared the npm cache using npm cache clear .

Answer 3

1.check your internet connection
2.ping test to github.com in TERMINAL or CMD
if everything is working fine then try to use this format for your git url git+https://git@github.com/geedmo/css-flip.git

or

if you need ssh:

git+ssh://git@github.com/visionmedia/express.git

Answer 4

我遇到了同样的问题，并且能够通过安装 git 来解决它

sudo apt-get install git-all

Answer 5

Git can not link to the specified URL. You can try git proxy mode. (Need their own proxy service)

Settings：

git config –global http.proxy http://127.0.0.1:1080 
git config –global https.proxy https://127.0.0.1:1080 

Cancel the setting：

git config –global –unset http.proxy 
git config –global –unset https.proxy

Answer 6

In non-interactive mode

Git Bash in the folder where you want set up your project

expo init AwesomeProject --template blank --workflow managed --name yourappname

Answer 7

就我而言，git 没有安装在我的机器上。

Answer 8

1. Just observe this "css-flip": "git://github.com/geedmo/css-flip" line in your package JSON code.
2. Your project depends upon a file css-flip which is stored in another project/repo.
3. while installing npm, your package JSON file will try to access and download css-flip file of another repo but something might blocking it.
4. In my case VPN blocked dependent files of other repo. So I initiated VPN and tried installing npm again npm i and it worked like magic.

Answer 9

In my case, I'm in a Windows environment and I'm using nvm-windows and Cygwin . I'd installed Cygwin's GIT version and I've got errors similar to those in the question regarding Error: Command failed: git .

So, I uninstalled this version and installed GIT for Windows . Then I attempted npm i again and the problem was solved.

Answer 10

At last I kill the terminal and restart again and it worked!
