[innomin0409]

I downloaded Git Source! git clone https://github.com/fjp/diffbot.git and I was typing "vcs ~" vcs import < src/diffbot/diffbot_dev.repos

but The system requested "Username" and "Password" Username for 'https://github.com': AAA Password for 'https://[email protected]':

so What are Username and Password?

Hi @innomin0409 thanks for reporting the issue. I assume it is because I made the remo_description repo private. But can you please provide the whole error message that you see?

I had to make the remo_description repo private because otherwise the huge amount of downloads each months would freeze the whole cloning of any repo in this organization, because of the limits GitHub has on it's free organization plans. So usually you can only get access to remo_description after obtaining a license. Since you are the first to report this issue, I've given you direct access to the private remo_description repo. You should have received an invitation, which you can accept. After that it should be possible to clone it.
