GitHub Connection Timed Out
Support this website by purchasing prints of my photographs! Check them out here.Here's an error I received:
$ git clone git://github.com/creationix/nvm.git ~/nvm
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/thunter/nvm/.git/
github.com[0: 207.97.227.239]: errno=Connection timed out
fatal: unable to connect a socket (Connection timed out)
If you are getting this error, it could be that you are behind some sort of corporate firewalls blocking the git protocol. To get around this, you can update the URI by changing git to http:
$ git clone http://github.com/creationix/nvm.git ~/nvm
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/thunter/nvm/.git/

If you need to update your submodules, you'll want to edit your .gitsubmodules and make the same changes.
