error: cannot run ssh: No such file or directory when trying to clone on windows

git, git-clone, windows

Solution

You don't have ssh installed (or don't have it within your search path).

You can clone from github via http, too:

git clone http://github.com/organization/xxx

Problem

I am trying to clone a remote repository on Windows, but when I did this: ``` git clone git@github.com:organization/xxx.git ``` I got this error: ``` error: cannot run ssh: No such file or directory fatal: unable to fork ``` Am I missing something?
