Then wouldn't it be "legalize_at_[hidden]" and not "git_at_[hidden]"?

When I copy/pasted the command given at
<https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/TryModBoost>

I always get this error:

> git clone --recursive git_at_[hidden]:boostorg/boost.git modular-boost
Cloning into 'modular-boost'...

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

I don't know how else to interpret this except that I am not able to
authenticate as user 'git' -- and why would I? I don't have the
private/public key for user git.
