You were correct in simply using “-co bolitare” without the group. Since no two packages can have the same 8 letter name, the utility looks up and finds the appropriate group. No need to worry about the no configuration file warning. It is not needed unless you clone the FD-NLS project and want to integrate translation into the project. Or, override default settings of the script. (Like prefer a different web browser). You are getting this GIT error because you could not check out the project using SSH. This can happen for a couple reasons. 1) You do not have permission from the server to clone that project using SSH. 2) Local git does not have access to the SSH keys you use with the server. 3) you SSH keys for that are wrong. 4) you don’t have any SSH keys setup for the server 5) you SSH keys are still locked Looking the messages, I’d say number 4. No problem, the script can use HTTPS instead. fdvcs3.sh -https -co bolitare Please note, that cloning a project with Git using HTTPS instead of SSH can produce complications if wanting to push changes back to the online repository. :-) Jerome _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
