Git Fetch returns 'fatal: I don't handle protocol https' in windows

Question

Just after adding remote repo, I tried git fetch remoteRepoName but it\'s returning this error:

fatal: I don\'t handle protocol \'https\'

Answer 1

I am new to git and I had a similar problem just now, the reason was that I tried to paste the link to my GitHub repository in the git bash using ctrl+V (I'm on windows) ad then ctrl+shift+v and when it didn't work I just wrote the link manually and when I ran the command it told me I don't handle https, and that's because ctrl+v was the special character they are speaking about in the answers above, so I restarted the bash and just typed in the link manually from the start and it worked, hope it helps.
