No. The correct command is:

git clone git@github.com:Loki-Astari/ThorsSerializer.git

The https version is using password authentication (which is very insecure). The git@ version is using your ssh key that you registered with github (much better security).

All the setup scripts assume you have an ssh key registered with github (otherwise you need to authenticate manually multiple times) as it downloads all the sub projects.

See: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-an-ssh-key/
