Cannot setup donejs on application

I am tring DoneJS out for hte first time. I already had an app started in html/javascript but donejs looked good.

So i followed all steps and installed GIT GUI.

Anyway wen installing DoneJS on the application after it asks me what type of licence I want it fails saying:

Err - cloning into bare respository c:/…

then
Err - fatal unable to connect to github.com (ive set the proxy for node.js in command prompt - is this how I do it)

Any ideas.

Hi @klarkin,

I’m not sure why something would be cloned when creating a new app… could you copy + paste everything in your command line, including the commands you ran?

Here’s an example of what it looks like for me

Any update on this. I tried doing this on my home pac with no proxy or firewall etc and still same issue.

Hi @klarkin, this section of the output makes me think it’s an npm issue, not a DoneJS issue:

Since you’re using npm 3, it might be worth running npm cache clean. Also, I would give npm 5 a try (npm i -g npm@5) and see if you get anything different; otherwise, filing an issue with them might be your best bet.
