If you have trouble to connect to github.com how you're going to "git clone https://github.com/[xxx]" https://github.com/[xxx]"?

  Because it's possible that you can't clone from the https endpoint but you can from the git endpoint, which helps them (and you) debug the cause.

    Yeah, but then the last step is to "copy & paste the results" to .. https://github.com/contact https://github.com/contact

      I'm assuming it also logs some debugging information with regards to your git client's behavior, though. So you could still be able to get to that contact form.

      Yes, presumably being unable to clone is an important data point.
      • fireattack 8y ago
        My point is chances are you can't visit https://github.com/contact https://github.com/contact to paste your debugging result, if you're "Having trouble connecting to github.com".
