Yes, it will never happen on my machine.

From:<https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/TryModBoost#InstallingModularBoost> 

And using git for windows: <http://rogerdudler.github.io/git-guide/>
  

I did a:
$ git clone --recursive git_at_[hidden]:boostorg/boost.git modular-boost 
 >clone.log

Cloning into 'modular-boost'...
The authenticity of host 'github.com (192.30.252.129)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is SHA256:nThbg6kXUpJWGl7E1IGOCspRomTxdCARLviKw6E5SY8.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?

Warning: Permanently added 'github.com,192.30.252.129' (RSA) to the list 
of known hosts.
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

And the clone.log is empty.
I'm not even a novice at git so not sure how to check if the repository 
exists or what from here. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Dan.
