Simple Beginner's Question: How to Clone a Pavlovia Demo

I am just starting out, so I forked the demo stoop project in Pavlovia. I tried to then clone it from my forked gitlab project using git clone git@gitlab.pavlovia.org:mjgroth/stroop.git. It then asked me for “git@gitlab.pavlovia.org’s password:”. I am guessing I took a wrong step and that it is asking me to log into a Pavlovia admin gitlab account. How do I clone my fork properly so that it asks for my password?

Hi There,

I think you want to fork or download rather than clone - this guide might be helpful there.

Hope this helps!

Hi Becca, thank you for your reply!

I actually figured out a solution that allows me to still clone. All I needed to do was use the URL of the gitlab page rather than the .git snippit provided on the page. For example, git clone https://gitlab.pavlovia.org/mjgroth/stroop worked for me.
