I was facing same issue for long time, then I tried running this command ssh -T [email protected] and it resolved the issue for me. You should verify the authenticity of the GitLab host, if you are cloning for the first time.

Aswering my own question This is due to Ipv6. It gets resolved when i am using -

echo "# To prefer IPv4 over everything else" >> /etc/gai.conf
echo "precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 100" >> /etc/gai.conf
echo "precedence ::1/128 50" >> /etc/gai.conf
echo "precedence ::/0 40" >> /etc/gai.conf
echo "precedence 2002::/16 30" >> /etc/gai.conf
echo "precedence ::/96 20" >> /etc/gai.conf

There is a recent incident, with its resolution ticket, which could explain some of what you are experiencing.
Plus the SSH loadbalancer had some issues as well.

Check also if the issue persists for other GitLab repositories you would clone through SSH.
