Problems cloning a file (git)

Have anyone problems trying to clone this repo?

I've tried git clone https://github.com/ipython-contrib/IPython-notebook-extensions/blob/master/usability/comment-uncomment.js but it says Error: repository not found.

Am I doing something wrong?

The issue is that you are not trying to clone the entire repository. If you just want that file, it's probably easier to copy and paste it. Otherwise:

git clone https://github.com/ipython-contrib/IPython-notebook-extensions.git

Should work just fine (it did for me).

You are trying to clone a file rather than the actual git repository. If you really want to checkout a single file you could use git archive (http://git-scm.com/docs/git-archive).

git clone https://github.com/ipython-contrib/IPython-notebook-extensions.git
