症状

When trying to git clone from msysgit using http, the following error is thrown:

could not read Password for 'http://user@server:7990': No such file or directory

原因 

This is caused by a bug for this exact version 1.8.5.2 of msysgit. Please refer to the discussion and links below:

  It is a bug in 1.8.5.2 msysgit (1.8.5.2-preview20131230). See the report and a discussion with a way to workaround

ソリューション

回避策:

• Cloning using SSH with the same version of msysgit works just fine.

• Please upgrade your msysgit version and retry the clone.
