Fatal Error : Can't resolve host github.com

Question

I am trying to push files to my remote repository from my local repository and I see this

fatal error : fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/vinivasundharan/abcd.git/': Couldn't resolve host 'github.com'

My computer is not using any Proxy because I have seen methods to resolve the issue when Proxy is being used.

I have tried the solutions from this and this. But both doesn't seem to help. My system has an active internet connection using Windows 7.

UPDATE

git config -l returns the following. I had to post it because I do not what exaclty this means

core.symlinks=false
core.autocrlf=true
color.diff=auto
color.status=auto
color.branch=auto
color.interactive=true

This solved my problem:

http version:

git config --global --unset http.proxy

https version:

git config --global --unset https.proxy

Answer 2

In Windows, if you've any third party firewall (or internet activity monitor) installed, then configure them to allow your client to access outside connection.

If there aren't any 3rd part firewallls, then go to control panel, search for firewall. Inside the firewall panel, select Add a new exception (or similar option). Allow the git client both inbound and outbound access.

Answer 3

I recomend you to switch to ssh.

You can get github ssh link from same place where https one. Then you just have to generate/add your ssh key to github profile. And that's it.
