Cloning a git repo from a private git server in Cloud9-IDE
===

Assuming that all the ssh keys are setup properly, is there any reason cloning a git repository on a private server should not work?  The only thing I can think of is that I'm using the IP address instead of a domain (i.e. 'git@11.111.111.11:repository.git').  Is there anything wrong with that?

Here's the information I got from the Cloud9 support:

    

> You should be able to clone from a private git project as long as you
> use authentication with keys. You can find the Cloud SSH key in the
> dashboard by going to Your Account -> Show SSH Key. You should add
> this key to your git server to authorize it. At this moment, we do not
> support authentication with password.  If your git server runs in a
> non-default port, then that might cause it not to work with Cloud9.
> Since the cloning functionality was written to work with GitHub and
> Bitbucket, the : symbol is assumed to be part of the Bitbucket url. In
> other words, if the url of your git project hosted at your private git
> server has : in it (because you are running the git server on a
> certain port), Cloud9 will think that this is a url form Bitbucket and
> parse it accordingly resulting in an error. This is a bug that I have
> already reported to our development team.
