Anything to be done other than cloning?

Hi @technocrat, I moved this as a separate issue from #7 - "Use GitHub pages for documentation", since that is a different issue.

To add a bit more, I also tried both under Linux (connected with GitHub) and Windows (not connected with my GitHub account) and I cannot reproduce your error.

I admit that I do not really have time to maintain this package, but not sure where the problem is. I had something similar once with issue #6 - "Failed to install - unsupported proxy error message". Are you limited by some firewall / admin rights?

Thanks for checking. Sorry to be late getting back to you. I've now tried this on two other, unrelated networks and have the same issue. It's not critical for me, since I can clone. Just wanted to let you know.
