        What OS are you using on your client? The freebsd-ports repository contains files with names which are not compatible with FAT/NTFS/etc on Windows. You will need to use BSD/Linux/Mac/other unix-like OS. It might work in cygwin or the Windows Ubuntu emulation, though, but I haven't tried.

            You didn't answer my questions, but based on that error, I'm guessing it's because you're trying to check it out on Windows. As I said, that is not going to work.

                Yes, Windows is the problem. Re-read my first reply, I explained the reason why it's a problem there.

                        yeah good, the forum is not a chat .. you should give more information in one post. which os are you using now? what command line did you run to clone the repo ? from where are you downloading? a screenshot of what's happening could be usefull also

                        kiokoman@nanto:~/test$ git clone https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports

                            that is still windows / cygwin ? the file system of your OS is not compatible with the repo. you need at least a virtual machine with unix/linux or better freebsd os using something like oracle virtual box or vmware

                              That looks like cygwin or msysgit. It still is limited by the underlying filesystem support. You need something that emulates a non-Windows filesystem and environment.

                              You can use a completely isolated VM for that, as has been mentioned already, but I just tested using the Windows/Ubuntu integration (Windows Subsystem for Linux (Link 1, Link 2)) and it checked out OK there as well.
