It has nothing to do with github account - anyone should be able to clone public GitHub repos without having to sign up for an account. There is definitely some kind of a networking issue with your location, etc.

Did you try to install the latest git on your system and use it from command line or your attempts were all done via Eclipse plugin?

Thanks, but it is a different issue here. The DNS name is correctly resolved into the right IP (65.74.177.129). The problem is that the remote port 9418 is closed there.

Maybe the only way for me is to get an account on github and use the ssh+git protocol?

   Well, I had tried the git:// protocol first... with this error:

    Cannot list the available branches.
    Reason: git://github.com/grails/grails.git
   <http://github.com/grails/grails.git>: Connection refused: connect


   Tracking this connection problem with Wireshark, I can see that
   all SYN packets get RST/ACK back. Meaning the remote git port 9418
   is closed.

   Is it a problem of not having an account on github?

       Generally cloning Git repos over HTTP protocol is known to be
       very slow and unreliable if there HTTP proxies involved, etc.
       I am also not sure about EGit plugin (I operate 'bare' Git via
       command line - it works wonders for me)

       So I'd recommend installing Git on your system and cloning
       Grails Git repo on the command line via 'git' remoting
       protocol: 'git clone git://github.com/grails/grails.git
       <http://github.com/grails/grails.git>
       <http://github.com/grails/grails.git>'


       Works fine for me.

          Hello,

          I'm trying to "clone" the grails source code from github. I
       must
          say I'm very new to Git. Well, using the
          <http://github.com/grails/grails.git> URL in the EGit Eclipse
          plugin, I get this error:

          Cloning from  github.com/grails/grails.git
       <http://github.com/grails/grails.git>
          <http://github.com/grails/grails.git>
          Initializing local repository: Receiving objects: 9%
       (6443/71586)
          Cannot get 293838eac6dc88824f9282cd8f135568e4b51358.
          Cannot get 293838eac6dc88824f9282cd8f135568e4b51358.


          Can anyone help me fixing this ?

          cheers


          PS: By the way, I added a small note in
          <http://www.grails.org/GrailsDevEnvironment> to warn that
       svn is
          no more active.
