Hi,

When I type:

git remote add origin git@bitbucket.org:tentimes/rtut.git

I get the response:

fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

The repository is valid and is a private repository of mine.

Can anyone help me get this repository added so I can checkout the source please?

Many thanks,

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

are you executing the "git remote add..." command within an existing git repository? The error message suggests otherwise.

Do you instead want to clone the repository?

git clone git@bitbucket.org:tentimes/rtut.git

HTH,

Stefan
