For the latter case at least, you need to first cd wo219161. [Don't you just /love/ shops which organize their code base under random numbers ;^>] Are you sure you're using Cygwin git - what path does "which git" show? Have you checked if there is an upgrade to be installed? Current Cygwin version is git 2.14.2-2. I've had no problems cloning, fetching, etc. but not pushed recently. -- Take care.
