HalfVoxel commented 3 months ago

Bug description

Running

cargo generate https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-idf-template cargo

Fails with

⚠️   Favorite `https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-idf-template` not found in config, using it as a git repository: https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-idf-template
Error: Please check if the Git user / repository exists.

Caused by:
    could not read from remote repository; class=Net (12); code=Eof (-20)

Would you like to work on a fix? y (but I have no idea where to even start)

I can reproduce this in multiple shells.

To Reproduce

See above.

Expected behavior

It starts generating the project.

Environment

Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
cargo 1.82.0-nightly (5f6b9a922 2024-07-19)
cargo generate-generate 0.21.3
git version 2.34.1

Workarounds

Cloning the project manually and using cargo generate --path ./esp-idf-template cargo works. Note that the CI uses this method.

Maybe this is related to this issue https://github.com/cargo-generate/cargo-generate/issues/874 I know my case is related

yeah this is fixed in the latest cargo-generate version 22. Ultimately that is caused by users setting a .gitconfig that rewrites https into ssh uri's. cargo-generate in version 22 can work with that now.
