Thanks for providing a very usable and useful project! I followed the quick start steps and tried to execute NuGetMirror nupkgs https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json -o d:\tmp without the ignore errors switch. After a bit, it stopped due to this exception:

Unable to download Tabster.Core 1.0.0
        - [System.Xml.XmlException] System does not support 'Windows-1252' encoding. Line 1, position 31.
[System.Xml.XmlException] System does not support 'Windows-1252' encoding. Line 1, position 31.

Not sure if this is an expected exception; Using --ignore-errors did help. I was wondering if you could mention this switch prominently in the README here itself, or maybe include a link to your blog post which gave me a clue about using --ignore-errors.

Environment: Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Datacenter 10.0.17763 Build 17763. en-US.

@arvindshmicrosoft thanks for logging the issue

It looks like FuGet has the same problem opening the nuspec file: https://www.fuget.org/packages/Tabster.Core/1.0.0

I'll keep this open to track updating the README, it looks like it isn't possible to clone all packages without ignoring errors on some environments.
