I'm trying to clone a repo that I use all the time locally from chiselapp. I've been able to upload it without any issue and view it from my dashboard just fine. When I try to clone it on a different machine, I get the error noted in the description.

Here is how I tried to clone it:

fossil clone http://TwistyTwigLegs@chiselapp.com/user/TwistyTwigLegs/repository/MyStuffForWindows MyStuffForWindows.fossil

and here is the error and logs that I got. I tried this using both http and https.

Clone done, wire bytes sent: 693  received: 5278074  ip: 74.208.146.128
server returned an error - clone aborted

Any help in figuring out what I need to do to get it cloned would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! Mike

Just as an FYI, I was able to download the repo from the Dashboard and it all looks ok, so it doesn't seem to be an issue with the repo itself.

Hope this helps.
