Problem Cloning azure DevOps

Liam Parker
Liam Parker November 16, 2020

Hi, I have got a new Macbook and am having trouble setting up Sourcetree to work properly.  

I have added an account with host set to "Azure DevOps" and it seems to connect correctly and in the Remote side of the app I can see all my repositories.  However when I try and clone any of them I get the error "This is not a valid source path / URL"

If I click on the error to get more details I get the below.

 

real URL is https://spsproduks1.vssps.visualstudio.com/_signin?realm=dev.azure.com&reply_to=https%3A%2F%2Fdev.azure.com%2FCompanyLtd%2FSavant%2520Systems%2F_git%2FSavant-Barco_Sound_Room%3Fcmd%3Dcapabilities&redirect=1&hid=018d4360-8d50-47f5-acda-76c848f813b1&context=eyJodCI6MiwiaGlkIjoiNzc1ODM3OGEtOTZiNi00NTUyLWEyNDUtMjZjYmNjYmU2OWQ4IiwicXMiOnt9LCJyciI6IiIsInZoIjoiIiwiY3YiOiIiLCJjcyI6IiJ90#ctx=eyJTaWduSW5Db29raWVEb21haW5zIjpbImh0dHBzOi8vbG9naW4ubWljcm9zb2Z0b25saW5lLmNvbSIsImh0dHBzOi8vbG9naW4ubWljcm9zb2Z0b2...

In case it helps others I managed to get it working after manually running a git clone command from terminal, example below.  I have changes the URL so it's not my actual one.

 

git clone https://CompanyLtd@dev.azure.com/QuestEndLtd/Savant%20Systems/_git/Savant-Barco_Sound_Room

 Now when I try and Clone a remote repository in the SourceTree app it works as expected.
