Git Error: fatal: Unable to find remote helper for ‘https’

Get code remotely using Git

git clone https://github.com/twlkyao/findfile.git

“Fatal: unable to find remote helper for ‘HTTPS'” (this is because git environment is not completely installed after re installation and needs to be re installed). You can temporarily use git instead of HTTPS and use the following command:

git clone git://github.com/twlkyao/findfile.git

Here we will use code installation to introduce:

Switch to code directory:

cd /opt/git-1.8.1.2/

Then follow the instructions in INSTALL to set the installation prefix (usually using root installation):

$ make
prefix=/usr all doc info ;# as yourself

# make
prefix=/usr install install-doc install-html install-info ;# as root

then make install

# make install
