Git clone snippet over HTTPS fails "not found error"

[wotschel]

I am trying to clone a snippet, but i always get "remote: Repository not found" error.

1. I am copying the link from the snippet page

2. Paste it to my terminal

git clone https://username@bitbucket.org/snippets/username/tag/snippetname.git

3. I am asked for the password

4. Receive the error message

Cloning repos is working without problems.

Hi Bjoern!

Looks like you came across this bug Issues #17153. It hasn't been fixed yet, but as a workaround you can set up an SSH key and use that for authentication. 

Hope that helps!
