Sorry about the misunderstanding.

The failing command is
`git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/gnuplot/gnuplot-main <RET>'

--------- Begin screen output -----
Cloning into 'gnuplot-main'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 86573, done.
Counting objects: 100% (86573/86573), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (18752/18752), done.

--------- End screen output --------

Hope this helps.

As a test, I've added by head the Newsgroup name to this email, so if
successful this message will also appear in the news list.

Best wishes,

Colin.
