[yocto] Build with Github source fails to connect

[Zafrullah Syed]

Hi all,

When I am trying to build my own recipe, I get the following error:

ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure: Fetch command failed with exit
code 128, output:
fatal: unable to connect to git.github.com:
git.github.com[0: 185.31.16.133]: errno=Connection timed out

My bitbake file is as follows:

DESCRIPTION = "Helloworld application"
SECTION = "examples"
LICENSE = "GPLv3+"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://README;md5=6ae88ed4026269f1ce69f4c800f36c2b"
PR = "r0"
SRC_URI = "git://
git.github.com/zafrullahsyed/HelloWorld.git;protocol=git;tag=v0.1"
inherit autotools gettext

I followed this tutorial:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.2/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#usingpoky-extend-addpkg-makefile

Where am i doing wrong? How do I use git protocol for bitbake recipe?

Thank & Regards,
Zafrullah Syed
