GitFiend opens an already cloned repo, but when cloning a remote repo, it fails it never asks for authentication. The below error was shown in Ubuntu 16.04 image

Thanks binaryblood, I'll look into it.

I'm having trouble reproducing this. Are you trying to clone a private repo over https? I just tried this in Ubuntu 16.04.6 without any issues.

Yes, Its a private repo hosted with Gitea. its over HTTP (not https).

I guess the problem might have occured when this application tries accessing CURL library internally (That is what i see in the error message from the image).

Yeah. I seems the bundled git depends on it somehow and can't find/open it.

In the latest version of GitFiend (0.21) there's an option to use your system git instead of the bundled one on linux. It's under main menu -> Repo. If git is working for you at the command line then this should work.
