[Error] Cloning PrestaShop-modules.git master error "Invalid remote: origin"

[outre99]

Greetings,

being new to PrestaShop and Git it's entirely possible that I'm missing something obvious. But i have tried to clone the modules repository several ways and searched through PS forums and Google but to no avail.

I've cloned the PrestaShop.git core repository to a local folder with no problems but when i'm trying to do the same for the modules the process runs for awhile showing objects being cloned but then at the end it fails with "Invalid remote: origin".

 

Has anybody experienced the same problem?

 

The reason i'm trying to do this is to setup "Vendor brach" pattern with Git where my changes will be applied into a separate repository cloned from the original "Vendor" ones.

 

If anybody has done that already i would be very interested in seeing your layout of folders and the workflow.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Update:

The error above happens when i try to clone from within Eclipse using Egit. Doing the same from Ubuntu terminal (bash) succeeds without errors. Very confusing indeed.
